When the Girona team plays on Sunday, the Spanish football team Real Madrid will be without Karim Benzema once more, and Rodrigo’s involvement is under investigation.
Benzema participated in team training on Friday, but the Golden Ball Award winner has fatigued muscles in his left leg.
Carlo Ancelotti, the head coach of Real, disclosed on Saturday that Benzema had tests done, and they were all negative.
Rodrigo may not play against Girona because Real Madrid will not gamble on the French international’s health.
Benzema trained with us on Friday, and following that, he felt in good shape, according to Ancelotti. All of our tests came back clean, but we still want to exercise caution.
He emphasised: The tests were extremely favourable, there was no issue at all, but he does not feel fully prepared, so we will maintain our composure around him.
Due to an ongoing ailment, Rodrigo did not train with the club on Saturday. His physical condition will be assessed during the game.
Federico Valverde, Danny Sibayos, and Luka Modric are all expected to play.
Ancelotti anticipates a response to his players after Madrid’s 2–3 Champions League defeat to Leipzig last Tuesday.
The team is aware that each game must be treated as the most crucial one of the season, according to the Italian coach.
It can be challenging to keep the motivation when you play a match every three days because you need to physically recover.
With 31 points, Real Madrid leads Barcelona by three points in the Spanish league rankings.
Rodrigo is being pursued by Real Madrid despite losing Benzema.
