Xabi Alonso, worried: He has been injured and might miss the Club World Cup

The coach from Tolosa is very alert to the physical condition of two Real Madrid footballers

The last LaLiga match for Real Madrid left two casualties that add to the list of injuries now inherited by Xabi Alonso. Brahim Díaz suffered a muscle problem, while the Uruguayan Fede Valverde was diagnosed with lumbosciatica.

Real Madrid issued a medical report on Valverde, whose participation with the Uruguay national team is in doubt. The Uruguayan has a hard time attending the matches on June 6 against Paraguay and on the 11th against Venezuela.

What is happening to Fede Valverde?

"After the tests carried out today on our player Fede Valverde by Real Madrid's Medical Services, he has been diagnosed with lumbosciatica. Pending evolution", they comment from the club itself.

However, Arancha Rodríguez commented on her social media that the Uruguayan, barring any surprises, will be out for a week. In any case, Xabi Alonso will keep an eye on the player's condition and how the midfielder's physical problems evolve.

Fede Valverde, the player with the most minutes played in Real Madrid's demanding season, participated in 59 of the 62 matches of the white team. In the final stretch of the season, the Uruguayan was already dealing with various physical discomforts, even playing several matches with muscle problems.

Brahim is not injured, but caution is needed

Meanwhile, Brahim Díaz left the match against Real Sociedad injured. In the 55th minute, the Moroccan international felt discomfort and immediately requested a substitution. It was Vinícius, who started from the bench, who entered the field to play almost the entire second half.

Brahim Díaz underwent tests at Ciudad Real Madrid and, according to Arancha Rodríguez, the footballer has nothing. In fact, the club has not issued any type of medical report. The midfielder will be in the Club World Cup, although Xabi Alonso will remain focused on his possible discomforts for what may happen.

This is not the first time Brahim Díaz has been injured this season. The Real Madrid footballer was already absent from last September until the end of October. Additionally, Carlo Ancelotti couldn't count on him in the last two league matches.
