The injured Madrid players are David Alaba, Thibaut Courtois, and Brahim Diaz plus Carvajal today. It seems that Ancelotti will have to add several players to replace injured players in the winter. It may take a while, but Madrid must prepare it so that they can still compete in the League and Europe. He only has Lucas Vazquez in place of Carvajal. There is also news that Madrid wants Trent Alexxander-Arnold from Liverpool, he has a contract end in January next year.
Romano has confirmed Carvajal will return in October 2025. This is very bad news for Real Madrid's side.
I think that will force Madrid's coach, Ancellotti, to find a new RB in the winter window. Though he rarely buys a new player in winter, he needs a new RB now. It's time to replace Carvajal. A temporary fix in the winter transfer window won't work.
Carvajal is 33. His ACL injury will limit his performance. And i doubt he will back to the his peak performance.
