Rodrygo has been killing it for Real Madrid lately. In his last nine games, he has scored eight goals and set up five others. But he wasn’t able to add to this total against Alaves on Thursday. Despite this, Real Madrid still managed to pull off a last-second win.
There are already a lot of injuries at Real Madrid. After Lucas Vazquez’s late winner, there are worries that Rodrygo could be the next player to miss time because he pulled up with what looks like a knee injury.
When Carlo Ancelotti talked to the media after the game, he put people’s minds at ease. However, Marca reports that Rodrygo will have medical tests on Friday to find out how bad the injury is.
Rodrygo becoming the fourth Real Madrid player to hurt his knee seriously, following Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, and David Alaba, would be terrible news for the team. The people in charge of the club will be hoping that these tests show good results.
