Camavinga sidelined for three weeks, impacts Real Madrid

Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga will be sidelined for approximately three weeks due to a hamstring injury sustained during the club's 5-2 Copa del Rey victory over Celta Vigo. The medical report confirmed a muscle injury in his left leg, ruling him out of crucial matches, including two Champions League fixtures against RB Salzburg and Brest, as well as several La Liga games. This marks Camavinga's third injury this season, compounding the challenges faced by Real Madrid, who are currently struggling in the Champions League standings. His potential return is uncertain, but he may be available for the highly anticipated Madrid Derby against Atletico Madrid on February 9. Manager Carlo Ancelotti will need to adjust his lineup, relying on players like Aurelien Tchouameni and Fede Valverde in midfield and finding alternatives at left-back. The team's injury woes have prompted management to seek solutions, including hiring a nutritionist to mitigate ongoing fitness issues.
