Real Madrid confirmed that 25-year-old Rodrygo sustained an anterior cruciate ligament rupture and lateral meniscus damage to his right knee during the match against Getafe on Monday. This was his first appearance since February 1 following previous injury and suspension. The injury forces him to miss the remainder of the 2025-26 season, including crucial LaLiga matches with Madrid trailing Barcelona by four points and their Champions League last-16 tie against Manchester City.
