Real Madrid Confidencial A Key Real Madrid Player is Injured, Announcement During International Break
The footballer already has set the recovery timelines for that unexpected ailment
The majority of the footballers in Santiago Bernabéu locker room have left with their respective national teams to fulfill commitments during the March international break. Despite the significant 'exodus' of players from the white club, there are still players who remain in the capital of Spain recovering from the efforts made in these last two matches.
One of those players not drafted by Luis de la Fuente for the Spanish national team is Fran García. While it is true that the '20' merengue is delivering a decent performance in the eyes of Carlo Ancelotti, he still has a long way to go to establish himself as a regular starter in his position. Thus, the Castilian-Manchego defender stays in Valdebebas to recover.
Especially after Ferland Mendy's injury. The '23' Frenchman was ruled out during the Champions League round of 16 return leg against Atlético de Madrid, and now only Fran García is available as a replacement. Therefore, the situation has become more complicated than expected when his physical discomfort was announced during the international break.
The information published by Alberto Pereiro on social media indicates that Fran García "ended the match against Villarreal feeling sore but it's nothing serious". The exhaustion from a very long week in competitive terms, after the Champions League clash and the match at Estadio de la Cerámica, has taken a toll on the '20' Madridist.
Quick Improvement
Despite the complicated situation looming in the merengue sports discipline, Fran García's discomfort is expected to end almost as quickly as it affected the footballer. "He should be ready in a week and make it to the match against Leganés without a problem," the Onda Cero journalist states regarding the recovery timeline for the left-back.
His recovery is currently the top priority for the white medical and training staff. With Ferland Mendy in the Valdebebas infirmary, Fran García is the only player who can naturally perform in that position. The option to place Eduardo Camavinga is always available, especially if Aurélien Tchouaméni remains definitively installed in the pivot.
In any case, Carlo Ancelotti will avoid placing the '6' Frenchman at left-back at all costs. Fran García needs the trust of the Reggiolo coach, who will be able to count on the Spanish footballer for the first match after this March international break. Very delicate moments are approaching for the competitive future of the white team.
The return of the internationals reopens the fronts for Real Madrid. In addition to the fight for the LaLiga leadership, they also have pending the resolution of the Copa del Rey semifinals against Real Sociedad. Additionally, Arsenal will be their opponent in a Champions League quarter-final more challenging than ever.
