Real Madrid have not escaped unscathed during the international break, and have reported that Eder Militao has returned to represent Brazil due to a hamstring injury.
The Madrid defender needed to be replaced when Selecao drew 0-0 with Colombia, citing a muscle problem in his right leg, and now has serious doubts about the UEFA Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk but Clasico faces Barcelona.
Globo reported that Militao’s injury was only a threat and that he would miss the games mentioned above, and Carlo Ancelotti had to deal with another injury.
Eder Militao was one of Italy’s undefeated Italian players alongside Thibaut Courtois, Karim Benzema and Federico Valverde, and all four have started in the club’s top 10 games for the club.
His absence will be felt by Los Blancos, especially at a time when Ancelotti is forced to use Alaba at left-back and Ferland Mendy is absent.
