Vinicius, Carvajal will be available for first match after break

Vinicius Junior and Dani Carvajal are back with the squad and will be available when Real Madrid host Mallorca on Wednesday, January 3rd in what will be the first match after the Christmas break.

Arda Güler should also be available although the coaching staff will likely take a very cautious approach so that he slowly gains confidence and momentum.

Camavinga, Mendy and Lucas Vazquez didn’t train with the squad today but they should also be ready for Wednesday’s game. Camavinga might need a few extra days to make sure that his knee is 100% ready, so he might be a game-time decision right now.

The coaching staff will be hoping to avoid a big injury crisis like the one Real Madrid suffered during the first half of the season. While the team managed to survive during that crisis thanks to an admirable effort, it will be important for Ancelotti to have a healthy squad going forward.
