According to multiple reports, Real Madrid is expected to have its two important players back in the game again ahead of the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup.
The 15-time UEFA Champions League winners have been constantly struggling with injuries this season, and due to this, is even the overall performance of the team has fallen drastically compared to the previous season.
However, the latest news, according to the report, seems to be good for the new manager Xabi Alonso and also for Madridistas.
According to reports, Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal will be available for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, starting in June and ending in the United States, due to both players’ effective signs of recovery.
The Belgian goalkeeper was out of the field for almost the whole season last year due to his ACL injury. Andriy Lunin and Kepa then took his position. On the other side, Dani Carvajal also missed an entire season due to his serious knee injury, and his place was filled with the academy centre back of Real Madrid, Raúl Asencio.
Boost for Real Madrid Ahead of Upcoming World Cup
However, both players have suffered injury again, because of which they have been out of the recent matches. Reports suggest that Courtois and Alaba would be back before the start of the FIFA Club World Cup.
Both players have key roles in the squad, and without them, the team looks unbalanced. The Belgian goalkeeper’s short-stopping has helped Real Madrid in many crucial matches, and having him back in the Club World Cup would strengthen the team.
Real Madrid’s medical staff are reportedly optimistic about the duo’s recovery timelines, and the players are said to be working hard in training to be match-fit before the tournament kicks off.
While the final decision will depend on assessments in the coming weeks, fans and coaching staff alike will be eagerly awaiting the official confirmation of their return.
Should Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal make it back in time, it could significantly enhance Real Madrid’s chances of adding another international trophy to their illustrious collection.
