Real Madrid suffered a very hard blow when the injury of one of its key young pieces in the sporting project was confirmed. The midfielder's absence will last approximately between a month and a month and a half, so his return is not expected until the beginning of October
Bad news for Real Madrid. The Merengue team has been able to confirm the extent of the injury suffered by Eduardo Camavinga last Tuesday, when unintentionally, Aurélien Tchouaméni, in a dispute for the ball, accidentally stepped on the ankle of the former Rennes player. The reaction of the '6' of the white team, expressed through a chilling scream and several gestures of pain, presaged a quite serious setback.
Finally, through its various communication channels, the Chamartín squad issued a brief statement to clarify the injury facing the French midfielder: "After the tests carried out today on our player Eduardo Camavinga he has been diagnosed with a sprained internal collateral ligament in the left knee. Pending evolution".

How long would Camavinga be out?
Although Real Madrid has not given an exact estimate of the recovery time, in this type of injury it is common to predict a period of absence of between six and seven weeks, which could be longer or shorter depending on how the player's recovery process evolves. Therefore, the Cabinda native would not return to action under Carlo Ancelotti's orders until late September or early October.
With this injury, Camavinga would obviously miss the European Super Cup match against Atalanta. Likewise, he would likely miss at least eight LaLiga EA Sports matches: RCD Mallorca (18/08), Valladolid (25/08), UD Las Palmas (29/08), Real Betis (01/09), Real Sociedad (15/09), Espanyol (22/09), Deportivo Alavés (25/09), and Atlético de Madrid (29/09).
The Frenchman did not hesitate to express his feelings after this 'blow'
After the severity of his injury was confirmed, the Frenchman did not hesitate to turn to his social networks (@camavinga) to send the following message: "I am deeply disappointed to suffer this injury and miss the start of the season. I will work hard to return soon. Thank you for all the messages of support over the last few hours and I also want to wish the team the best for tonight's game! Always thank God".
