He was originally scheduled to miss eight games for Los Blancos, starting with the match against Getafe at home and ending with the match against Osasuna on October 8.
Earlier than expected recovery?
Vinicius is reportedly making every effort to make it back in time to play Atletico Madrid, according to reports from MARCA.
Although it will be challenging to accelerate the recovery to this degree, the fact that it is even being contemplated says a lot about the progress Vini has already made.
On September 24, Real Madrid and Atleti square off at Civitas Metropolitano. The Selecao star should be able to play in the derby with less than three weeks till kickoff.
A unique circumstance for Vini
Since that time, Vinicius has only once been ruled out due to illness—once from the Coronavirus and once from gastroenteritis.
The 23-year-old is one of the most crucial components of Carlo Ancelotti’s setup, therefore Los Blancos won’t take the chance of hurrying him. However, if he were to come back for the derby, the Merengues would greatly benefit.
