Rodrygo, Bellingham and Ceballos to make Madrid squad for Cadiz game
Brazilian striker Rodrygo Goes confirmed his presence in Sunday's match against Cadiz (18:30 CET) by training with the group for the first time since his return from international duty, leaving behind some discomfort in his right knee that remained a scare.
After two training sessions in the gym, the striker completed the session without any problems and will be part of the squad for the match in Cadiz.
Only 16 first-team players will make up the squad, as coach Carlo Ancelotti has seven absentees through injury who did not train with the group on Saturday.
Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao, long-term absentees with cruciate ligament tears in their left knee; Arda Guler with muscular problems; Aurelien Tchouameni with a fractured toe; Frenchman Eduardo Camavinga, with a ruptured external lateral ligament in his right knee; and Vinicius, with a ruptured femoral biceps in his left leg.
These absences forced Ancelotti to count on eight youth players to complete the training session: goalkeepers Hugo Mantecon, Fran Gonzalez and Diego Pineiro; defender Jaime Calleja; midfielders Nico Paz and Carlos Rodriguez; and forwards Gonzalo Rodriguez and Yeray Lancha.
England's Jude Bellingham, who has overcome a dislocated left shoulder, and Spain's Dani Ceballos, after being sidelined with muscular problems, took part in Real Madrid's training session without any problems. Both will return against Cadiz.
