Real Madrid goalkeeper Ibrahima Konate is set to miss the team's upcoming Champions League match against Roma due to an injury. The news comes as anticipation builds for José Mourinho's return to Roma's Olimpico stadium on October 14th, marking the second matchday of the competition. Konate, who joined Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer, is currently doubtful for the game against his former side.
The French defender sustained a torn collateral ligament in his right leg during a recent training session, and tests confirmed the extent of his injury. The duration of Konate's absence is yet to be determined, as his condition will be closely monitored by Real Madrid's medical team on a daily basis. Should he fail to recover in time, it would be a setback for Mourinho, who remains uncertain about the availability of defender Federico Valverde.
In the event of Konate's absence, Eduardo Camavinga will step up as a substitute, while Antonio Rudiger, another former Roma star, may also be called upon to fill the defensive void.
