Sergio Ramos will not be in Huesca. The captain, who continues to suffer discomfort in his left knee, has not participated with his teammates in the last session in Valdebebas before the league commitment tomorrow Saturday (16:15, Movistar LaLiga) against the Alto Aragonese team and has been left out of Zidane's list for the match. A call for 17 players (of them, only 14 with a first team card) in which Isco is not there either. The man from Malaga noticed a puncture in his back during the final stretch of training and this weekend he will undergo medical tests to find out the extent of his possible injury.
Ramos completed Friday's afternoon session in the gym after working out on the grass for the last two days with his teammates. It will be the fourth game that the central loses. The last one he played was the semifinal of the Spanish Super Cup against Athletic. The one from Beds showed some discomfort in the knee already during the warm-up prior to that meeting. Some physical problems that have lasted and that have already prevented him from being against Alcoyano, Alavés and Levante.
Zidane could only have 19 players in training this Friday. Ramos's loss is also joined by those of Carvajal, Lucas Vázquez – who did part of the training alone on the pitch – Valverde, Hazard and Rodrygo – these three in the gym –. Militao, who did take part in the session, will not be able to play in Huesca either because of the red he saw last day against Levante. Madrid appealed the expulsion to both the Competition and Appeal Committees, but both disciplinary bodies have dismissed the allegations of the white club and have maintained the sanction match for the Brazilian central defender. Y to all those casualties was added at the last minute that of Isco, leaving the Madrid expedition very depleted for the match, which only has 17 players. Zidane has not been able to take more footballers since LaLiga's covid protocol requires that any player summoned had passed a PCR test yesterday.
The one who was in this last session and also travels to Huesca was Nacho, who completed his second training session after fifteen days isolated by the onslaught of the coronavirus. The youth squad, who has played 808 minutes this season, has missed the last three games. He did not travel to the Cup match because he had to be isolated after being in contact with someone infected and five days later it was he who tested positive.
Before the casualties, The white coach had two Castilla players in the session, Víctor Chust and Marvin, who also travel with the expedition to Huesca.
