Following the injury reports involving Kylian Mbappé, the next case concerning Real Madrid’s medical department has apparently come to light. As the French sports daily ‘L’Équipe’ reports, there is also said to have been a misdiagnosis involving midfield star Eduardo Camavinga.
The incident is said to have occurred on December 3, when Camavinga was examined after sustaining an injury. As with Mbappé, the club doctors at Los Blancos are said to have examined the Frenchman’s ankle after the injury — but the wrong one.
While Camavinga complained of pain, the tests reportedly focused on his right ankle, even though the injury was actually to his left one. Since the examination naturally found nothing wrong with the healthy foot, the player was declared fit to play.

The consequences of this mix-up were risky: Camavinga was included in the squad for the league match against Celta Vigo on December 7. He played, even though he should actually have been receiving treatment. As a result, his condition worsened, forcing him into a layoff of several weeks.
If the reports from recent days prove to be true, the pressure on Los Blancos’ medical leadership is likely to increase massively.
