Real Madrid are back on deck. Dolphins of FC Barcelona during the previous exercise, the Merengues will try to knock the Catalans off their pedestal. And this requires a first victory. For the resumption of La Liga, Carlo Ancelotti’s men will travel to San Mamés to face Athletic Bilbao. On the sidelines of this confrontation, Real Madrid has communicated the identity of the players who will make the trip to Basque land on Saturday (9:30 p.m.).
For this meeting, the Italian coach has decided to call up 19 players. Unsurprisingly, Thibaut Courtois, victim of a cruciate ligament rupture in training on Thursday, is not on this list. While waiting for his potential successor, Andriy Lunin should occupy the Madrid cages as confirmed by the transalpine coach to the press. However, we note the presence of summer recruits such as Fran Garcia, Jude Bellingham, Joselu and Brahim Diaz.
