Medical tests confirmed the extent of the injury.\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>In the 2024\/25 season, Militao was out for eight months due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament and damage to the meniscus in his right knee.<\/li><li>In August 2023, he suffered the same injury, but in his left knee, missing a large part of the 2023\/24 season.<\/li><li>Since his first serious injury, he has only played 46 matches out of the 146 played by Real Madrid.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\nMilitao is expected to return to activity in April 2026. This absence will prevent him from participating in the Spanish Super Cup, the Copa del Rey, a large part of LaLiga, and the decisive phase of the UEFA Champions League.\n\nThis situation represents an additional challenge for the coaching staff, who will have to reorganize the defense. The team will have to face a tight schedule without one of its defensive pillars.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c9der Militao, Out for Four Months Due to Muscle Injury Real Madrid has confirmed a new injury for \u00c9der Militao, who will be out of the fields for four months.
