The French midfielder has torn a tendon. He will also miss the Club World Cup

The worst-case scenario has become reality for Eduardo Camavinga. After additional medical examinations, it has been confirmed that the French midfielder has suffered a torn tendon in his left leg, which means he will miss the rest of the season—including the FIFA Club World Cup.

Recovery time for such an injury is typically no less than two months and could stretch to three, depending on how his body responds. Because of that, Real Madrid has decided not to rush his return, aiming instead to have Camavinga fully fit for the next season. They’re also hoping for a much-improved version of him compared to the one seen this year.

The 22-year-old has had nothing but bad luck. Back in August, he injured his knee in a training ground collision with Tchouameni just before the UEFA Super Cup and was sidelined for over a month. Later, muscle issues plagued him—first in December, forcing him out of four games, then again in January with a similar absence.

Struggling with rehab, Camavinga never really found his rhythm this season, drawing criticism for his performances. And now, just ahead of another final—the Copa del Rey—he suffers his most serious injury yet. Another headache for Carlo Ancelotti, who had planned to use Camavinga at left-back in the final in Seville to deal with Lamine Yamal.

To make matters worse, after testing Camavinga at left-back against Athletic Bilbao, Ancelotti intended to rest him against Getafe. But when David Alaba picked up an injury, Eduardo had to step in unexpectedly. Then, in the 85th minute—his tendon gave out.

A sad ending to a sad season—Camavinga’s most difficult one since joining Real Madrid.
