Theo Maledon, a 24-year-old combo guard, has been sidelined indefinitely by Real Madrid due to an injury affecting the adductor longus muscle in his right leg. The club officially updated his status on Friday, January 25, 2026. Maledon's early exit from the recent game against AS Monaco marked the team's first significant injury concern in recent EuroLeague and Liga Endesa matches.
This season, Maledon has been a key contributor for Real Madrid in his first EuroLeague campaign, averaging 10.7 points, 3.1 assists, and 1.9 rebounds over 21 appearances. His professional career includes prior experience with LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne and a three-year stint in the NBA from 2020 to 2024. The team, coached by Sergio Scariolo, currently holds a strong 16-8 record in the EuroLeague and leads the ACB table with a 14-2 record.
Real Madrid is scheduled for two upcoming road games. They will face Rio Breogan in the Liga Endesa on Saturday, January 27, 2026, followed by a trip to Paris to play against Adidas Arena on Tuesday, January 28, 2026, for a EuroLeague fixture. Maledon's indefinite absence will test the team's depth as they continue their pursuit of top rankings in both competitions.
