Vinicius Jr. was able to get back to full health in time for Real Madrid’s match against Atletico Madrid, and it gave the impression that things were starting to turn around for the better for Real Madrid. It was previously anticipated that the Brazilian winger would not participate in the derby; nonetheless, he was named in the team, which came as somewhat of a surprise. However, the story has taken yet another unexpected turn as of late.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Vinicius had to be removed from the team once again. In addition, he won’t be playing in the Madrid Derby, which will take place at the Metropolitano Stadium.
Vinicius was not included in the matchday squad that Real Madrid will use to take on Atletico Madrid, as stated by the club’s official account on Twitter.
This comes as a surprise to the fans, who were looking forward to seeing the Brazilian great compete once more following his recent injury. Since he was hurt while playing against Celta Vigo a month ago, he has not been able to participate in any games.
Vinicius Jr. posed a dilemma for Real Madrid in the last minute.
The one piece of good news is that Vinicius has not re-injured himself since his first injury. Instead, he is said to be battling with issues related to his digestive system, as reported by Cadena SER.
One can only cross their fingers and hope that Vinicius gets well as quickly as humanly can. We are hoping that his rehabilitation goes as smoothly as possible.
Due to the fact that Vinicius had not appeared in a game since the beginning of the previous month, there was already some uncertainty over the amount of playing time he would have received versus Atletico Madrid. However, the mere presence of a player of that caliber on the bench is enough to give Carlo Ancelotti a significant advantage and give Diego Simeone cause for concern.
Vinicius will not be able to participate in the Madrid Derby due to a scheduling conflict. Therefore, it is reasonable to anticipate that Rodrygo and Joselu will begin working together once again.
Real Madrid is the squad that has been playing well recently and will come into this match as the favorite. Despite the fact that their performances have left much to be desired, Los Blancos have been victorious in all six of their games up to this point. Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, are coming off a 3-0 defeat to Valencia and a 1-1 tie against Lazio. Both of these games were played recently.
