Carlo Ancelotti, the manager of Real Madrid, has confirmed that David Alaba and Eduardo Camavinga will miss the upcoming Copa del Rey final against Barcelona because of injuries.
During Real Madrid’s tight 1-0 win against Getafe on Thursday, Alaba was substituted at halftime, a move probably made as a precaution
Camavinga took his place, but unfortunately he was unable to finish the game either, prompting immediate worries about his fitness.
Later assessments showed that Camavinga has sustained a “complete tear of his left adductor tendon,” an injury so serious that it will keep him from playing for the rest of the season.
Given that the team is already dealing with a number of important injuries, this represents a major setback for them.
The situation places added pressure on Ancelotti, who is reportedly facing potential dismissal if results do not improve.
His defensive options have been severely depleted, with Alaba joining an injury list that already includes defenders Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, and Dani Carvajal. Moreover, forward Kylian Mbappe is also unavailable.
On the current situation, Ancelotti said, “Camavinga needs to be seen on Thursday, but both he and Alaba are dealing with muscle injuries, making it difficult for them to participate on Saturday.
