Real Madrid Team News

We start with Mendy, who suffered a hamstring injury that will force him to miss out on Saturday, and probably a game or two, at least, beyond that.

Shifting gears to Ceballos, while he also has a hamstring problem, the news relating to it is much better. He’s a doubt, but nothing more severe than that, for this match.

Finally, in regards to Vallejo, mum’s the word.

He’s got a muscle injury, but little is known about the severity of it, and what the timeline is for his return.
