Eduardo Camavinga’s injury against Olympiacos adds to Real Madrid’s struggles

Eduardo Camavinga’s difficult season continued as the Real Madrid midfielder was forced off at halftime during the Champions League clash with Olympiacos.

After playing a key role by assisting Mbappe’s third goal in the first half, Camavinga was seen heading straight to the tunnel for discussions with the club doctor. Dani Ceballos warmed up quickly and stepped in as Madrid led 4-1 thanks to Mbappe’s rapid hat trick.

Just recently back from a previous injury picked up with the French national team, Camavinga had already missed six matches for both club and country due to an ankle issue between August and September.

This latest setback, with its exact nature yet to be confirmed, raises concerns about his availability for Real Madrid during a packed December schedule.

Camavinga’s recurring injuries have become a source of anxiety for fans and the coaching staff, who rely on his energy and passing in midfield. Each absence disrupts team plans and makes the road ahead trickier as Real Madrid fight to maintain their momentum in domestic and European competitions.
