The team trained today!
Rodrygo, Alaba, and Courtois did individual training on the grass today. Rodrygo wants to return in the next game, but it’s unlikely at this point. Osasuna, on next Saturday, is more possible.
CB monitoring persists
NEW: Real Madrid have several options on the table for the CB position. The club continues to track names.

It’s just me that think this kind of reports is curious – “what happens”? What should happen for a club to sign a CB, besides only having two available CBs in the squad and one of them is basically the back-up right back too? Or is the plan really to play Rüdiger and Militão all games this season?
