Real Madrid defender Éder Militão has successfully undergone surgery, marking a significant step in his recovery following a recent injury. The club’s medical staff has developed a tailored rehabilitation plan for the player, which is expected to last for five months.
Current forecasts suggest that the Brazilian hopes to fully recover and return to the pitch by September 2026. The loss of a player of Militão’s caliber represents a considerable setback for Real Madrid, but the recovery timeline offers the possibility that he could regain top form by early autumn and reinforce the team’s defensive lineup.
Éder Militão has now commenced the initial stage of his rehabilitation under the close supervision of the club’s physiotherapists. This season, he has played 21 matches for Real Madrid across all competitions, contributing 2 goals and 1 assist.
Reminder: The main favourite to become the next Real Madrid head coach has been revealed — the legendary manager José Mourinho is reportedly in pole position.
