Fans of La Liga giants Real Madrid have this week been made aware of some altogether positive personnel news in the club’s first-team squad.
This comes amid confirmation on the part of Diario AS that Antonio Rüdiger is some way ahead of schedule in his recovery from injury.
German international Rüdiger was of course forced under the knife late last month.
This came owing to a chronic knee issue which had been plaguing the former Chelsea man throughout the 2024/25 campaign.
Initially, the understanding, in turn, was that Rüdiger would not be seen in a competitive setting again until next season, making use of the summer to enjoy a full recovery.
As alluded to above, though, if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, then the all-action defender could be back on the pitch much sooner…
As per a report from Diario AS:
‘The efforts and hours of meticulous gym work Rüdiger has been putting in since his surgery are bearing fruit. The expectation is that he’ll be part of the group that travels to the Club World Cup. He might even be available for Xabi Alonso for the second group stage match, against Pachuca, on June 22.’
