Sad News for Xavi and Barcelona As Real Madrid Manger Ancelotti confirms Real Madrid have key player available ahead of El-clasico clash against Barcelona tomorrow
On Sunday, Eder Militao might reach a big goal: he’s getting close to making his first Real Madrid start of the season.
The Brazilian back has played little in the last four games since slowly getting better from an ACL injury he got in August.
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, speaking to the press before the game through Diario AS, said that Militao is ready to start against Barcelona if asked.
“He might be able to start.” He’s ready to play and needs to time to do so. He can’t wait to play. He’s a choice for us.
Nacho Fernandez, who played well against Manchester City, and Aurelien Tchouameni are also in the running to start with Antonio Rudiger alongside Militao.
In addition to talking about Federico Valverde’s dependability, Ancelotti also talked about how important he has been all season and how he will be missing the upcoming El Clasico.
“He has always played well on the field, which has helped the team a lot.”
He follows the rules, which is why I include him. He helps out in a lot of different spots, like on the side, in the middle, and elsewhere. I can’t do without him.”
