For one of the Real Madrid players, triumph in the UEFA Champions League was not so sweet - Dani Carvajal is seriously concerned about his injury.
After Mohamed Salah left the field in tears in the UEFA Champions League final, soon after, D. Carvajal suffered an injury as well. His opponent hit him in the ankle.
D. Carvajal immediately burst into tears. The defender felt very serious ankle pain and was disappointed not only because he would have to leave the field, but also likely to miss the biggest football tournament - the 2018 World Cup.
The 25-year-old footballer did not even celebrate the title with the team when they paraded through Madrid. The defender only joined when the celebration moved to the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.
There are no official medical conclusions yet, but there is a higher probability that D. Carvajal will not go to the World Cup.
For one of the best players in his position, this is a big shock, as due to a similar episode in the 2016 Champions League final, he had to miss the European Championship.
Due to various injuries, D. Carvajal has not yet had the chance to debut in any major tournament with the Spanish national team.
Official news regarding the defender's chances of recovering before the World Cup should be clarified by tomorrow.
