Real Madrid winger Rodrygo Goes will not be able to return to action until the beginning of 2027.
According to İdman.Biz, citing COPE, the 25-year-old Brazilian continues his recovery from a serious injury and is not expected to play again before early 2027.
Rodrygo is undergoing a lengthy rehabilitation process, with Real Madrid taking an extremely cautious approach. The club will only allow him to return when the risk of a recurrence is considered minimal.
Rodrygo's injury problems began in March, when medical examinations revealed a torn anterior cruciate ligament and damage to the lateral meniscus in his right knee.
The Brazilian underwent surgery on March 10, with his initial recovery period estimated at 10 to 12 months. The main priority for both Rodrygo and Real Madrid's medical staff is a full recovery, with no attempt to rush his return.
Therefore, if his rehabilitation continues according to schedule, Rodrygo will not feature for Real Madrid again in 2026. The exact date of his return will depend on the progress of his recovery.
Rodrygo's contract with Real Madrid runs until the summer of 2028. Despite the difficult situation caused by his injury, the club remains hopeful that the Brazilian will make a successful return to action.
