Real Madrid will have to do without Vinicius Junior for a long time. The 23-year-old left winger, with a market value of 150 million euros the most valuable player in the “Royal” squad, suffered a tear in his left thigh biceps in the international match against Colombia with the Brazilian national team, and a tendon was also affected. The offensive force had already missed four games this season due to a hamstring injury.
Real did not say how long Vinicius Junior would be out, but the Spanish media consistently wrote that it would be at least ten weeks, for example from “Marca“. This would mean he will be out until the end of January and will, among other things, miss the two remaining games in the group phase of the Champions League against SSC Napoli (November 29th) and at Union Berlin (December 12th).
Another bitter news for the Madrilenians, because in addition to Vinicius Junior, Aurélien Tchouaméni (stress fracture) and Eduardo Camavinga (knee injury) also have to be replaced for a long time. In addition, there are the two long-term injured Thibaut Courtois and Éder Militão after cruciate ligament tears. Together, the quintet has a market value of 445 million euros.
