Real Madrid had a hectic but successful week. After qualifying on penalties against Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the Merengues also won in the last seconds during the Clasico against Barça (3-2) last weekend. A victory which almost seals the coronation in La Liga. It is therefore time for Carlo Ancelotti to focus on the double confrontation against Bayern Munich in the C1 semi-finals.
And the technician has decided to give some players a break for this weekend’s La Liga match against Real Sociedad. In this sense, Jude Bellingham, victorious scorer against Barça, was not called up due to gastro. The staff took no risks. He is not in the group just like Ferland Mendy. The French left-back is still unavailable and seems to worry the Madrid staff. Eder Militão is present while Courtois will make his return next weekend against Cadiz.
