Earlier on Wednesday, it was reported that Eduardo Camavinga suffered a blow to his knee during a collision with former Barcelona player Ousmane Dembele during training with the French national team.
With Aurelien Tchouameni already out for the next few weeks with a foot injury, it raised serious concerns at Real Madrid that they could be without another key midfielder for a significant period of time.
Fortunately, everything appears to be okay with Camavinga. The situation has been deemed to be a false alarm according to Jose Luis Sanchez, with the 21-year-old set to returning to training with France tomorrow, and he should be in contention for their match with Gibraltar on Saturday.

Falsa alarma. Sólo tiene un golpe en su rodilla.
Mañana se entrenará sin ningún problema con Francia. https://t.co/MXxMg9wvxy— José Luis Sánchez 🇪🇸 (@JLSanchez78) November 15, 2023
This news will be a huge sigh of relief for Real Madrid. Camavinga is seen as the perfect replacement for Tchouameni during the latter’s lay-off, and they will hope that he remains out of trouble for the remainder of the international break.
