Real Madrid has made a little fear on Wednesday evening in the King's Cup. Opposed to Leganés in the quarterfinals, the Merengues qualified in extremis thanks to a goal from Gonzalo Garcia in additional time (90e+3). A meeting in which Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé did not take part, the fault of a contusion in the calf for the French striker.

There was therefore a doubt about the presence of the former PSG star for the derby against Atlético, Saturday evening in Santiago-Bernabeu, as part of the 23e Liga day. A doubt dissipated this Friday with the announcement of the group chosen by Carlo Ancelotti. The Captain of the Blues will be there against the Colchoneros, second in the championship at a blank point.

With Kylian Mbappé and… Eduardo Camavonga!

Good news for the Italian coach, who once again praised the successful integration of his new n ° 9 at a press conference: “He humbly arrived, very well, without requirement. He needed time, but he adapted very well to the team, as the team adapted to him. The data is there, we cannot ask him more. We are very happy. »»

If Jude Bellingham will also make his return for this shock, the reigning Spanish champions will also record the comeback of Eduardo Camavonga. The tricolor midfielder, who missed the last six games due to a muscular lesion to the femoral biceps of the left leg, is summoned in the same way as Ferland Mendy and Aurélien Tchouameni.
