🚨 Official: Rodrygo ruled out of the World Cup

Thunderbolt!

The day after the defeat against Getafe (0-1) and the announcement of Kylian Mbappé's knee injury, another terrible piece of bad news has been confirmed this Tuesday afternoon.

Real Madrid has confirmed the serious knee injury of Rodrygo. The Brazilian is suffering from "a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and a rupture of the external meniscus in the right leg," the Spanish club stated in its medical report, thus confirming the information published by the Spanish press just a few minutes earlier.

Rodrygo's season is thus over. The Brazilian forward is also out for the World Cup, with Marca estimating his unavailability to be at least seven months, while COPE mentions ten months of absence and a return to competition in 2027!

This injury comes at the worst possible time for the Madrid club, already deprived of Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham, just days before the crucial Champions League match against Manchester City.
