Two Real Madrid stars getting closer to recovery – report

Real Madrid’s start to the new season has been flawless in terms of results, but the Galacticos are far from where they want to be in terms of quality, and playing a huge role therein, are their injury woes.

After being derailed due to an ACL injury to Thibaut Courtois, matters went from bad to worse when Eder Militao also suffered a similar fate, and young new signing Arda Guler also picking up a meniscus injury before the campaign could get going.

And then another hammer blow, as star winger Vinicius Jr also picked up a thigh injury against Celta Vigo.

There were concerns about Vini’s injury also being quite serious, which was then debunked much to everyone’s relief.

Everyone has been working hard on their recovery, and Goal Espana (h/t Madrid Xtra) report that there is a positive update with two of them.

Vini and Arda Guler back on the pitch

Having signed from Fenerbahce in the summer after being linked to rivals Barcelona as well, Guler was a signing that highly excited everyone.

Nicknamed the Turkish Messi, Guler’s silky dribbling skills and ability to unlock defences is a huge asset, as Madrid look to usher in their era of young stars.

However, his meniscus injury during preseason meant he had to be sent home from the United States, yet the problem was deemed not serious enough to warrant surgery.

It is reported that both he and Vini Jr are now taking big strides in their recovery and have returned to training on the pitch.

Highly-encouraging signs for Los Blancos right ahead of the Champions League season kicking off, as they also look to keep up the momentum in La Liga.
