Real Madrid soccer stars Eduardo Camavinga and Vinicius Jr were both spotted out at sporting events in the USA on Thursday night. 

Both players are currently injured and were therefore unavailable for Real’s 1-0 LaLiga win over Alaves back in Spain on the same night.

Camavinga tore a knee ligament whilst on international duty with France last month.

Vinicius, meanwhile, was ruled out for two and a half months on November 18 after he sustained a hamstring injury.

But both have been making the most of their time away from the treatment table and flew across the Atlantic for a vacation.

Although both were in the USA, they weren’t spending time together and were spotted out and about at different games on Thursday.

Camavinga was on the sideline before kickoff at SoFi Stadium ahead of the crucial game between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints.

He witnessed a thrilling game in California with the Saints threatening to pull off a dramatic comeback, only for the Rams to hold on and strengthen their playoff chances.

The Frenchman was all smiles as he walked down the sideline with his entourage.

He was seen clutching a Rams scarf and was not the only high profile sporting star in attendance at SoFi.

That’s because baseball sensation Shohei Ohtani was also there as he continues to enjoy the offseason after signing his $700million, 10-year contract with the LA Dodgers.

Vinicius, meanwhile, was in Oklahoma City to watch the Thunder take on the star-studded Clippers team at Paycom Arena.

The Brazilian sat courtside as the Thunder managed to end the Clippers’ nine-game winning streak thanks to a dominant performance from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

Vinicius looked delighted as he was pictured holding him his own custom Thunder jersey on the front row.

He watched on as James Harden scored 23 points and Paul George added 22 for the Clippers, who hadn’t lost since falling at Golden State on November 30. Los Angeles forward Kawhi Leonard was out with a bruised right hip.
