Real Madrid starts with annual training

Real Madrid started 2024 with a morning training in their sports city, in which Lucas Vázquez confirmed progress, Frenchman Eduardo Camavinga is heading for a comeback and Turkish Arda Güler showed Carlo Ancelotti that he is now in a position to receive the first minute after five months of injury.

Italian Carlo Ancelotti did not change his usual work schedule and held the first training session of the year in the morning. He postponed kick-off but ruled out an afternoon move due to the proximity of the first leg, on Wednesday January 3 at the Santiago Bernabéu against Mallorca

Real Madrid start 2024 continuing the good momentum of the recovery of injured players, and apart from those with more serious knee injuries, Belgium’s Thibaut Courtois, Brazil’s Eder Militao and Austria’s David Alaba, plus France’s Ferland Mendy due to a muscle injury that will prevent him from taking part in the first game of the year , the rest of the team practiced normally.

Lucas Vázquez has already recovered, according to club sources, from the discomfort he had in his back. Camavinga, for his part, is developing positively after progressively entering the group dynamics, and this Monday he took a new step forward. Ancelotti will be more careful with his return due to the injury he left behind, the rupture of the external lateral ligament of his right knee a month and a half ago, for which a longer time out was expected.

Güler, meanwhile, is feeling good and has shown he is fit for the start of 2024, burying the injury nightmare he has endured since joining Real Madrid and suffering his first pre-season setback.

Dani Carvajal, who overcame a minor problem with a muscle in his left sole, and Brazilian Vinícius Junior, who shortened his recovery from a muscle tear and trained to the max for another day to show good physical tone on his return, were confirmed to return.
