This season, Real Madrid is dealing with a slew of injuries. Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao (ligament), Eduardo Camavinga (knee), Aurelien Tchouameni (foot), and Vinicius Junior (hamstring) are among the first-team players who have been sidelined.

Notably, if Jude Bellingham and Brahim Diaz’s shoulder injuries do not heal quickly, things could get considerably worse. Jude Bellingham made his debut earlier this month against Rayo Vallecano, but he will need surgery to rectify the condition at some point.

Bellingham may or may not require surgery, but Brahim Diaz will undoubtedly require surgery to correct his shoulder injury. Diaz has been attempting to play in pain since September, and according to The Athletic, Real Madrid has opted to schedule surgery for the Spanish star.

Although no exact date has been announced, Los Blancos fans anticipate that the former Manchester City player will have surgery at the end of the season so that he does not miss any Real matches. This is critical since Vinicius’ injury has left Carlo Ancelotti with only three striker options: Rodrygo, Joselu, and Diaz.
