Real Madrid may be missing attacker Kylian Mbappe for their Club World Cup opening against Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal, as the Frenchman skipped training due to illness.
Xabi Alonso, Real’s new head coach, will make his debut for the Group H encounter at Hard Rock Stadium, although several regulars may be absent.
Defender Antonio Rudiger and the versatile Eduardo Camavinga are also likely to miss out against the Saudi team.
“Kylian was feeling a little better this morning, but not enough. It’s very hot and it was better that he didn’t train. But we will wait until the last moment. Tomorrow morning we will decide,” said Alonso.
“Rudiger made a brutal effort this season and I don’t know if he will be called up tomorrow, but he is progressing well and will be the first to return. Camavinga is also improving quickly, but he needs time,” he added.
