German Antonio Rudiger, who was out with a knee injury, and Latin American Mariano Diaz trained alone on Monday. Both are ready to be available for the second leg of the Copa del Rey El Clasico against Barcelona.
According to 'EFE', Real Madrid's Rudiger is not suffering any problems after the results of his ultrasound. His knee is in perfect condition and therefore, he can get back out playing. Having said that, he'll have to wear a bandage on it.
The defender got alarm bells ringing. He wasn't on Madrid's squad list for the Real Valladolid game due to the knock. The club undertook some medical tests and ruled out an injury meaning he will be available in time for the Copa del Rey semi-final second leg Clasico against Barcelona.
Just like Rudiger, Mariano trained alone and they were both absent together with Frenchman Ferland Mendy, who's expected to be out for at least five weeks due to a calf muscle.
He will be Carlo Ancelotti's only absentee ahead of El Clasico this Wednesday where the Madrid side will have to overcome a 0-1 defecit from the first leg to reach the final.
Therefore, less than 24 hours after thumping Real Valladolid 6-0, Real Madrid got back to training in a light session for those who started the game.
