Overview
- MARCA, cited via Fabrizio Romano, reports damage to the ACL in Rodrygo’s right knee with an expected 6–7 month recovery.
- OK Diario had earlier flagged ACL involvement following Tuesday morning scans after the Getafe match.
- He was hurt minutes after coming on when his knee was trapped awkwardly, completed the game, then underwent further tests after initial post-match checks.
- Real Madrid’s attacking options tighten for Celta Vigo with only Vinícius Jr. and Gonzalo García available, as Kylian Mbappé is injured and Franco Mastantuono is suspended.
- The blow comes after a recent tendinitis layoff in a stop-start season of 27 appearances, three goals and six assists.
