Medical update and upcoming surgery

Real Madrid announced on Monday, October 12, 2026, that Gabriel Deck will undergo surgery in the coming days for a left shoulder injury. According to the club’s medical report, tests carried out by its medical staff diagnosed anterior instability following an episode of joint dislocation.

The statement does not give an exact surgery date or a recovery timeline. For now, the confirmed sporting and medical point is that Deck is awaiting surgery and further updates on his progress with Real Madrid’s basketball squad.

A case closely watched in Argentine basketball

The news matters in Argentina because Deck has been one of the country’s recent basketball references at the top European level. Without a return timetable from the club, any estimate about his availability would be premature.

The case is also a reminder of a basic rule when following high-impact injuries: a confirmed diagnosis is not yet a return date. Until Real Madrid releases further updates, the verifiable facts are the injury, the planned surgery and the absence of an official recovery timeline.
