The first pre-season friendly of the Real Madrid has collapsed. The white team was going to play a training match on Wednesday morning, at 12:00 hours, with the Vallecano Ray in Valdebebas but, as AS learned, the meeting was suspended this afternoon. The reason would be the possible positive in a coronavirus test of a franjirrojo player.
Both the madridista club and the rayista have made the decision mutual agreement and the Vallecana entity itself has transmitted it to its players, since they were summoned to travel by bus to Valdebebas. Instead, the template has received a notification that must appear at the Sports City, at 09:00 hours, to exercise there as if it were another day.
Madrid was preparing the game with 22 players (including an important group of homegrown players) and will have to look for an alternative, something complicated given the panorama that marks the pandemic and the imminent start of the League. So things, Zidane will only have one rehearsal match before the league debut (on the 20th against Real Sociedad) and it will be next Tuesday the 15th against him Getafe, also in Valdebebas.
For its part, the Ray will know, throughout the morning of this Wednesday, the result of the PCR of the player with symptoms and whose identity has not transcended. At the expense of what comes out in said test, it has been decided to opt for prevention and suspend what was going to be the last friendly for the franjirrojo team, who will visit Son Moix this Sunday. Precisely this Tuesday, Trejo returned to training after having overcome the coronavirus.
