On Instagram, Eder Militao posted, “Thank God, my surgery went well.”

“I want to express my gratitude to Real Madrid, the doctors, my family, and everyone else who has supported me in the past few days.”

“The start is over!” The defense declared, “The journey back to the field begins now.”

Militao has ruptured his ACL in his knee for the second time in less than two years.

His most recent setback occurred during Real Madrid’s home victory over Osasuna.

The defender is unlikely to return to action until much later in 2025.
