What happened. Eder Militao passed his final physical assessment with Dr. Lasse Lempainen, the surgeon who operated on his severe proximal hamstring tendon injury in late April 2026. He could rejoin first-team training soon, but still needs to rebuild conditioning before playing this season.
- No competitive return date has been confirmed by the club.
- The next milestone is Militao appearing in full group sessions.
- His absence has added to Real Madrid's defensive fitness issues.
His comeback is nearing its final stage, with full group training the next signal to watch.
