Militao and Guler Sidelined for Season with Hamstring Injuries
The club said the hamstring injuries leave both players out for about four weeks, though they are expected back before the World Cup.
- On Thursday, Real Madrid confirmed that Turkish midfielder Arda Guler and Brazilian defender Eder Militao will miss the remainder of the season with hamstring muscle injuries affecting the biceps femoris.
- Militao felt a twinge during Tuesday's match against Deportivo Alaves shortly before halftime and signaled to be replaced, while Guler experienced muscle discomfort in the final training session before Friday's clash with Real Betis.
- MRI scans confirmed the diagnosis for both players; club sources expect them to be sidelined for around four weeks but should recover in time for the World Cup, which kicks off in less than 50 days.
- Barcelona leads LaLiga by nine points with six games remaining, positioning the rivals to meet in a Spanish Clasico at Camp Nou on May 10, while midfielder Raul Asencio shows clear signs of recovery from a gastrointestinal issue.
- This marks another setback for Militao, who has endured a succession of injuries in recent seasons, including ACL tears in back-to-back years, highlighting the Brazilian defender's ongoing durability concerns.
