A Spanish media report stated that Real Madrid star Antonio Rüdiger underwent successful surgery and will be absent from the team for the upcoming period.
The Spanish network ‘COPE’ reported that Rüdiger underwent successful surgery for a partial tear in the outer meniscus of his left leg.
The source added that the German defender will be out for Real Madrid for a period of 6-8 weeks, thus his season may be over.
It is expected that the German defender will miss the FIFA Club World Cup this summer.
It is worth noting that Rüdiger is set to be suspended for a long time after being sent off in the dying moments of the Copa del Rey final, so he decided to undergo surgery to be ready for the new season.
