D. Carvajal's heart problems - more serious than thought: Spaniard granted 2 months sick leave

Days at Madrid's "Real" club are not the happiest. Due to heart problems, one of the best planet's defenders, Dani Carvajal, has dropped out of the lineup for an unlimited time. The 25-year-old footballer played in all this season's matches until last weekend, but just before the match against "Espanyol" the Spanish capital's club announced unexpected news - the defender caught a heart infection, which led to pericarditis. Initially, it was thought that D. Carvajal would need two weeks of rest and then be able to return to training, but "Marca" reported that the problems are more serious than originally thought. Doctors advised D. Carvajal not to engage in any active activity for at least two months, so "Real" fans may not see the defender on the field until December. This is not an injury that requires surgery and months of rehabilitation. Due to this infection, the defender must be carefully monitored by medical professionals, as the treatment is unpredictable. Carvajal's drop from the lineup for an unlimited time will give young Achraf Hakimi plenty of opportunities, who this season moved up to the main team from the second "Real" team.
