Real Madrid defender Éder Militão has left the field on a stretcher after what appeared to be a serious leg injury in the first half of the team's 4-0 win over Osasuna.

After Éder Militão sustained a season-ending ACL injury, the next man up for Carlo Ancelotti's depleted backline is a Real Madrid Castilla defender with just one first team appearance to his name. Real Madrid's injury crisis reached new heights when Militão was stretchered off the pitch in tears against Osasuna.

Real Madrid are scouring the transfer market in urgent search of a centre-back to bolster their defensive line after losing Eder Militao to a season-ending injury. According to AS, Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah is one of several options under consideration by the reigning European and La Liga champions.
