Real Madrid player injury and transfer developments

Overview

Real Madrid winger Rodrygo is expected to remain sidelined until at least the beginning of 2027 following surgery in March for a torn anterior cruciate ligament and damaged lateral meniscus in his right knee. The club is reportedly taking a cautious approach to his rehabilitation to minimize re-injury risks, meaning the Brazilian international is unlikely to play an official match for the remainder of 2026.

In response to squad availability issues and previous unsuccessful attempts to sign Rodri from Manchester City, Real Madrid has reportedly renewed interest in Martin Zubimendi as a potential solution for midfield needs.
