Madrid supporters went from joy to disappointment. This Saturday, at a press conference, Carlo Ancelotti announced very good news a few hours before the derby against Atlético de Madrid. “Vinicius trained with the team yesterday. He shows good physical condition. Today he trained very well and will be in the team. Tomorrow we will decide what role he can play.” The Brazilian star was therefore due to make his comeback this Sunday to support Rodrygo, Joselu and Brahim Diaz in attack.

Injured for a month, the 23-year-old winger was present in the group unveiled this weekend by Real Madrid. Except that a few hours before the match now, Real Madrid has just communicated. Vinicius Jr was finally removed from the group at the last minute. He does not seem to have fully recovered from his injury and the Merengues therefore do not want to take any risks.
