Rodrygo to miss World Cup: Real Madrid and Brazil forward suffers serious knee injury

Advertisements

Brazil’s Real Madrid forward Rodrygo will miss the World Cup after suffering a serious knee injury.

Real said, external the 25-year-old had “been diagnosed with a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and a rupture of the lateral meniscus of his right leg”.

An ACL injury often leads to footballers missing most – and sometimes all – of a season and recovery can sometimes take even longer.

Rodrygo appeared as a second-half substitute for Real in their defeat by Getafe on Monday.

It was his first appearance since a late substitute outing for the La Liga club at the start of February.

The setback for Rodrygo comes with Real forward Kylian Mbappe also struggling with a knee injury.

The France forward has missed his club’s past two games as he has been troubled with an injury to the external ligament of his left knee since the end of 2025.
