MADRID, 29 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema will be Real Madrid’s only casualty for this Sunday’s LaLiga Santander match against Girona at the Santiago Bernabéu (4:15 p.m.), for which Carlo Ancelotti brings back players like Luka Modric, Fede Valverde, Dani Ceballos and Mariano.
The current Ballon d’Or will miss his third consecutive game, after those of Sevilla and Leipzig, since he accused “muscular fatigue” before the duel against the Andalusians. “He trained and after training he wasn’t comfortable. After the clinical examination, he doesn’t have any kind of problem, but we have to take into account the player’s feeling, which is still not one hundred percent,” the Italian coach said in Press conference.
Who will be this Sunday will be the Brazilian striker Rodrygo Goes, despite the fact that he had “a bad night”, according to Ancelotti. “We have had a little problem with Rodrygo, he had a bad night; he has not trained today but he will be tomorrow”, he confirmed. In addition, Croatian midfielder Luka Modric, Uruguayan Fede Valverde, Dani Ceballos and Mariano return to the list.
The full call-up forms Courtois, Lunin, Luis Lopez; Carvajal, Militão, Praise, Vallejo, Nacho, Odriozola, Lucas Vazquez, Rüdiger, Mendy; Kroos, Modric, Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouamen, Dani Ceballos; Hazard, Asensio, Vinicius, Rodrigo and Mariano.
