That’s according to Diario AS, who point towards Rodrygo and Aurélien Tchouaméni as the players in question. Both attacker Rodrygo and midfielder Tchouaméni were recently condemned to spells on the sidelines, owing to respective thigh and ankle injuries.

Brazilian attacker Rodrygo was forced off in Saturday’s win over Osasuna, in which teammates Eder Militão and Lucas Vazquez also suffered injuries.

Rodrygo Goes left the Santiago Bernabéu pitch in tears after suffering a new muscular problem just 19 minutes into his return to Real Madrid's starting lineup.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly considering some experiments in the La Liga match against Leganes.
