JAKARTA - Real Madrid confirmed on Monday, November 25, 2024, local time that Vinicius Junior had a left hamstring injury.

This makes the attacker absent on a crucial trip to Liverpool in the 2024/2025 Champions League on Thursday, November 28, 2024, early morning WIB.

ESPN reports that Madrid hopes the Brazilian will only be out for three to four weeks.

Vinicius played 90 minutes in a 3-0 win at Leganes in the 14th week of La Liga, 25 November 2024.

There is no indication from Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, after the match that Vinicius was injured.

The winger used social media after the news broke, calling the football calendar crazy.

Vinicius only returned to Madrid on Thursday, November 21, 2024, after becoming a core player as Brazil drew against Venezuela and Uruguay during the international break.

"Mbappe is fitter than Vinicius. He played very well with the goal, after getting fantastic assists from Vini. Little by little the two got better," said Ancelotti after the match against Leganes.

Real Madrid came to Anfield with a winning target after losing twice in four Champions League games so far. They are still in 18th place with six points.

Los Blancos, who are in second place in La Liga with a four-point gap from Barcelona leaders, will also take part in the 2025 Club World Cup next month.

A very busy schedule brings concern to the club, including Real Madrid. You see, players become exhausted and prone to injury.

Meanwhile, Vinicius has scored 12 goals and made eight assists in 18 appearances in all competitions for Real Madrid this season.
