Sergio Ramos is ready for surgery on his left knee injury
Zinedine Zidane explained why Sergio Ramos decided to have surgery on his left knee injury. The Real Madrid captain has not featured since the Supercopa de Espana defeat to Athletic Bilbao on January 14, and it was reported this Saturday that surgery is required. “It was important for him,” Zidane said of Ramos’s situation after Real Madrid’s 2-1 win against Huesca. “The surgery had to be done, and Ramos is ready for it. It had to be done because he was at the limit. He will start his recovery from Sunday.” The coach spoke after a Ramos-less Real Madrid came out from behind on Saturday at El Alcoraz. “It was a crucial victory, it is vital to gain points,” Real Madrid boss noted.
“We played with character. It was important to get points and win. We continue step by step. The character that we showed was important. The team always thought we could change the game. It is a great result to come back when you are losing 1-0.” Raphael Varane scored both goals, but Real Madrid’s most dangerous player during the game was Marco Asensio. “He’s had a long injury, we are happy with him,” Zidane said on the Spaniard. “And we hope he can keep playing for a long time.”
