Real Madrid returned to training at Valdebebas Sports City a few hours after suffering the first defeat of the season in a disastrous match at Lille (1-0) to begin preparations for the match against Villarreal this Saturday at the Santiago Bernabéu (9: 00 pm, Movistar LaLiga).
The star of the session was Dani Ceballos, who is shortening the recovery time for the ankle injury he suffered on September 1 against Betis and is now part of training with the group. Initially it was assumed that he would be out of action for almost two months but everything indicates that he will return early.
The bad news for Carlo Ancelotti is that Rodrygo has trained alone and is doubtful of being accepted into Marcelino’s team. The Brazilian forward did not participate in yesterday’s match due to some discomfort. The injured Brahim, Alaba and Courtoi are continuing their respective recovery processes, as reported by Madrid on their website.
The starters from yesterday’s match did recovery work, including Eder Militao, who was substituted in Lille due to a knock.
