In the early hours of Sunday morning, Dani Carvajal confirmed that he is set to miss the remainder of the season after he suffered an ACL injury in Real Madrid's 2-0 victory over Villarreal on Saturday.
Carvajal has already receive many, many messages of support, and one of those has come from Joselu Mato, whom he considers to be one of his closest friends in football. The pair were teammates at Real Madrid last season, and they would have been in the Spain squad together during the upcoming international break.
Joselu made his feelings clear in an emotional post on X.
"I write through tears and with the feeling that I would have preferred it to happen to me. Now we have a path ahead of us that I know you will follow admirably, like everything you do. I love you brother, always with you."
Escribo entre lágrimas y con la sensación de que preferiría que me hubiese pasado a mi. Ahora nos queda un camino que se que recorrerás de forma admirable, como todo lo que haces. Te quiero hermano , siempre contigo. pic.twitter.com/8sEzxcEwmF

Carvajal's season-ending absence is a crushing blow for Real Madrid, as it also is for Spain who have now lost two of their most influential players – Rodri Hernandez being the other one – in a matter of weeks.
