Vinícius Júnior to Miss Liverpool Clash Due to Hamstring Injury
Real Madrid forward Vinícius Júnior has been ruled out of the upcoming Champions League match against Liverpool due to a hamstring injury, the club confirmed on Monday.
“After undergoing tests today, Vinícius Júnior has been diagnosed with a hamstring injury in his left leg by Real Madrid’s medical team,” the club stated.
Spanish reports suggest that the Brazilian winger is expected to be sidelined for around a month, meaning he will also miss the Champions League match against Atalanta on December 10, in addition to Wednesday's clash at Anfield.
Vinícius played the full 90 minutes in Real Madrid's 3-0 La Liga win over Leganés on Sunday, providing the assist for Kylian Mbappé’s opening goal.
The 24-year-old has been in exceptional form this season, outshining summer signing Mbappé. He scored four goals in as many Champions League appearances and has netted eight times in 13 La Liga matches. He also finished second in the 2024 Ballon d'Or voting.
Real Madrid, the defending champions, have had a challenging start to their European campaign, suffering two losses in their first four group-stage matches, leaving them 18th in the standings.
Meanwhile, Liverpool, under new manager Arne Slot, are leading both the Premier League and the Champions League.
