Real Madrid hexagonal warrior suddenly suffered a waist injury! He may be injured for one week, and the suspense of the Club World Cup is to be resolved

On May 25, 2025, Real Madrid Club officially announced that midfielder Federico Valverde will miss the game for at least one week due to lumbar sciatica. The Uruguayan international has just finished the season with the team, but has encountered a health crisis while preparing for a key battle. Ironman falls, can Real Madrid's midfield gear still turn?

Injury details: The price under the high-intensity schedule

Valverde played 59 games for Real Madrid this season, contributing 9 goals and 8 assists, and his cumulative playing time exceeded 5,000 minutes, making him the second highest player in the team. During the latest examination, the medical team found that his lumbar nerves were inflammation due to long-term strain and needed to stop strenuous exercise immediately for treatment.

Although the club has not announced the specific recovery schedule, Uruguay's National Biography quoted team doctors as saying: "He needs to rest for at least 7 days, and whether he can catch up with the Club World Cup on June 19 still needs to be observed."

Tactical impact: Alonso's new problem

Valverde's absence will directly impact Real Madrid's midfield offensive and defensive system:

Offensive tandem: 8 of his 14 assists this season were from the ribs, and Modric's pass selection will be limited;

Defensive coverage: His average of 3.2 interceptions per game is the first in the team, and Rudiger and Carvajal need to make temporary replacements.

Real Madrid needs to find a new midfield balance point, and youth training young player Brahim Dias may have an opportunity.

Suspense of the Club World Cup: Can you play with injuries?

Although the club said it was "promising to participate", the medical team warned: "Long-distance flights and fierce confrontations may aggravate the injury." If Valverde returns forcibly, it may repeat the mistake of Vinicius' long-term quit after taking the game with an injury in the 2023 Champions League final.

Although the league has ended, now is a critical period for the Club World Cup, and Valverde's injury has touched the nerves of the entire Real Madrid team. If he ultimately misses the key battle, Real Madrid's road to championship may add variables.

I hope Real Madrid Hexagon Warriors can get better as soon as possible, I feel sorry!
