Real Madrid have published their squad list for Saturday’s home game against Atlético de Madrid in what will be the first Madrid Derby of the current 2020-2021 season.
REAL MADRID ROSTER:
Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin and Altube.
Defenders: Carvajal, E. Militão, Sergio Ramos, R. Varane, Nacho, Marcelo, Odriozola and Mendy.
Midfielders: Kroos, Modric, Casemiro, Valverde and Isco.
Forward: Benzema, Asensio, Lucas V., Vini Jr. and Rodrygo.
Valverde is back with the team after missing the last month of action due to a small fracture in his shin. However, the midfielder may not be in the starting lineup yet, as he will likely need to improve his form and conditioning before he can play the 90 minutes. However, his physique will be useful throughout the game, so Valverde is expected to play relevant minutes.
Other than that, manager Zidane could decide it’s time for Carvajal to return to the starting right-back role, although Vázquez’s brilliant performance against Gladbach last Wednesday could give him a little more time, even if he’s not a pure defender.
