Real Madrid veteran Dani Carvajal the long road of injury rehabilitation begins.
The Los Blancos defender saw his season already over after a gruesome knee injury before the international break.
Carvajal has suffered a triple tear of knee ligaments, with surgery the immediate option to save his career.
The 32-year-old will be back in time for next season, but it will be a tough few months.
The rehabilitation is slow at this point with the inflation of a post-surgery recovery the main focus before the end of 2024.
Carvajal offered an update on the first days after his operation, and is ready for the fight ahead, as he sets a return goal.
“It has been a week since the operation, with painful moments, long nights and difficult feelings to deal with”, according to reports from Relief.
“But, at the same time, I felt very strongly the love of everyone around me, which makes the process more pleasant. A week later.”
Caarvajal joined up with the Spanish side in midweek to provide a support role for their UEFA Nations League games, with his recovery now continuing at home in Madrid.
