Vinicius Jr Injured After Barcelona Loss as Madrid’s Title Hopes Fade
Real Madrid have confirmed that star forward Vinicius Junior has picked up an ankle injury following their 4-3 loss to Barcelona in El Clasico.
The Brazilian had to leave the pitch during the heated clash on Sunday, and the club has now revealed he’s dealing with a sprain in his left ankle. However, they didn’t provide a timeline for his return. “Medical tests have confirmed a sprained left ankle. His recovery is still being evaluated,” the club said in a brief update.
This comes as another blow for Madrid, who were already reeling from the painful defeat that may have dashed their La Liga title hopes. With only three matches remaining and a seven-point gap behind Barcelona, losing Vinicius at such a critical moment only adds to the pressure on Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
