Madrid's "Real" club's shining young player Jese Rodriguez will no longer appear on the field this season due to a serious injury suffered in the UEFA Champions League.
Yesterday, the "white" team faced Gelzenkirchen's "Schalke" in the Old Continent tournament, and at the beginning of the match, the opponent's defender injured the 21-year-old forward.
In a statement from the "Real" club, it is reported that Jese ruptured the tendons in his right leg and will be out not only for the rest of this season, but for 4 to 6 months.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti was disappointed after receiving this news: "It's a big loss. We want to send him our best wishes."
This season was the first for the Spaniard in the main "Real" team, but Jese became a very important player. In 33 games played, the footballer scored 8 goals and made 4 assists.
There were talks that the 21-year-old forward would receive a call-up to the Spanish national team for the upcoming World Cup in the summer, but due to the injury, those hopes faded.
