Real Madrid has seen a number of its injured players return to action, but the team’s goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, defenders Eder Militao and David Alaba, and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois continue to be the players who have been missing for an extended period of time.
Alaba’s injury is the most recent of the three, and it is not known how far along he is in his recuperation. This raises worries about his availability, even at the beginning of the new season.
Additionally, Militao and Courtois had failures in the month of August, which resulted in the decision to withdraw their contributions to the ongoing campaign from consideration.
Even in the event that they return to play, it is anticipated that their performance will be below their ideal levels, and it is reasonable to anticipate that Carlo Ancelotti would keep them out of the lineup at important times of the league or the Champions League.
Militao is expected to make an early turnaround for Real Madrid.
Recent reports indicate that Militao was seen in Valdebebas, where he was performing some mild workouts with the ball. Particularly after suffering a catastrophic injury, he is concentrating on reducing the impact that his knees are subjected to in order to avoid relapses or incurring further difficulties.
At this time, the focus is on strengthening the damaged region in order to ensure that his body is working at its highest potential. Despite the fact that his recent actions are promising, celebrations in Madrid are being held in moderation since everything is proceeding according to plan, and there is still a significant distance to go with regard to the recovery process.
AS, a Spanish daily, reports that there is a prospect that Militao’s comeback might take place sooner than expected. This would make it possible for him to rejoin the club for group training by the end of March or in the month of April.
A club source explains the recovery process of the two individuals, saying, “There is still a very difficult mountain to climb.”
Despite the favorable feelings that have been created about the player, the club emphasizes how important it is to adhere to medical schedules without sacrificing on due procedures.
Considering that Madrid only has two center backs on their squad at the moment, a return from Militao by the end of March would be very advantageous for the soccer club.
On a number of times, Ancelotti has made it clear that he is hopeful that Militao will be able to return to the club in order to strengthen it. Real Madrid, on the other hand, will not violate the medical timetable for either Militao or Courtois, as was stated before. This is true about both players.
