Undergoes successful surgery

Militao has successfully undergone surgery for a rupture of the proximal tendon of the left biceps femoris, performed by Dr. Lasse Lempainen under the supervision of Real Madrid's medical services, according to the club.

Analysis: Militao ends the campaign with two goals, one assist, 28 tackles and 86 clearances across 21 appearances, a bittersweet tally for a player who showed his quality whenever fit but simply could not stay healthy. The surgery marks the latest chapter in what has been a brutal three-season stretch for the Brazilian center-back, who has missed more than 230 days to injury in each of the last three campaigns, a staggering toll that has prevented him from establishing the consistent presence his talent deserves. The World Cup this summer is now completely out of the question, and his focus will shift entirely to being fully fit and ready to go when the 2026/27 season kicks off, with Real Madrid and Brazil both desperately needing him healthy for the long term.

Surgery confirmed, WC dream over

Militao will undergo surgery on his left hamstring after the wound from his initial December injury against Celta Vigo reopened, ending any hope of featuring at the World Cup this summer, according to Miguel Angel Diaz of COPE.

Analysis: Militao had been battling to recover from the biceps femoris setback but the reopening of the original scar has forced the club's hand, with surgery now the only option to properly address the injury. The Brazilian center-back ends what has been a desperately unlucky season due to injuries and ends the season with two goals, one assist, 28 tackles and 86 clearances across 21 appearances in all competitions, having shown his quality whenever fit before injury struck again. Antonio Rudiger will continue covering in central defense for the remainder of Real Madrid's season, while Militao now faces a lengthy rehabilitation process that will keep him out well into the new season and deny him the chance to represent Brazil at the World Cup.
