Eduardo Camavinga has left the France U21 concentration and He has returned to Madrid, after not having overcome the injury he suffered in the last league game against Espanyol (he retired at half-time and was seen with ice on the bench). He has a strong bruise on the instep of his left leg, a condition that prevented him from playing last Friday against Ukraine and which has also ruled him out for the match that his team will play on Tuesday against Serbia in Belgrade.
The final decision was made on Saturday afternoon, after being explored by the French Federation doctors and check that you still have a lot of pain in the area. Now he returns to Spain to put himself in the hands of Madrid’s medical services, who have been in contact with him during the week that he has been with his national team.
It is not a major injury, but it is very annoying and it comes at a decisive stage of the season. It is an area of ​​the foot that is in permanent contact with the ball and more so in the case of Camavinga, who is left-handed. Therefore, until the pain is completely gone, it is very uncomfortable to play again.
The good news for Ancelotti is that Madrid will not play until next Tuesday, against Shakhtar in the Champions League, because LaLiga postponed the match scheduled for this Saturday against Athletic because the South American footballers who have gone with their national teams would hardly have time to rest.
Recovering Camavinga next week is essential for Ancelotti, because the duel against Shakhtar has become decisive after the stumble against the Sheriff at the Bernabéu and then comes the Clásico against Barcelona. Two games that will mark the course of Real Madrid in this final stretch of 2021.
