Real Madrid have suffered a major setback despite their excellent form and run of results. While celebrating a 10-game winning streak, Los Blancos have been hit by two significant injuries to Mikael Jantunen and Theo Maledon, raising concerns about the team's growing list of physical problems.

Jantunen has suffered a complete rupture of the plantar fascia in his left foot and will be sidelined indefinitely. Real Madrid's medical report states that his recovery is "pending further evaluation." The injury is particularly concerning because of its complexity and the risk of setbacks during rehabilitation. His estimated recovery time is between nine and twelve weeks.

Meanwhile, French point guard Maledon has suffered a sprain to his right knee. He sustained the injury during the first quarter of the game against Fenerbahce when his knee buckled as he drove towards the basket. Although the injury could have been more serious, Maledon initially returned to the court before wearing a knee brace in the second half. He could be out for around a month.
