Valverde suffered a sprain in the lateral ligament of his left knee.
Real Madrid continued their top performance in El Classico and defeated Barcelona in this season’s first rivalry clash but their midfielder Fede Valverde suffered an injury. According to Marca, Valverde suffered a sprain in the lateral ligament of his left knee.
Thibaut Courtois also took a knee injury but his injury isn’t serious. It hurts as I felt pain when I kicked, but I was able to continue. I hope it’s nothing serious.” Courtois declared.
Meanwhile, the Uruguayan midfielder had tests on Monday morning in Madrid. He will be unavailable in most of the scheduled training sessions this week and will also take few days to recover.
If we calculate his chances, then he will certainly miss the next two games against Osasuna and Elche. Carlo Ancelotti can give more breaks to recover completely from the injury.
Eduardo Camavinga might be the first midfielder off the bench for Los Blancos in place of Fede and will likely get a chance to feature in the starting lineup.
