Real Madrid Trio Miss Training while Ancelotti plans Copa del Rey changes

Real Madrid faces a rapid change for its quarter -final clash of the Copa del Rey in Leganes on February 5.

Whites are looking at a victory in their local rivals, but Carlo Ancelotti is expected to present a side turned in southern Madrid.

Ancelotti has continued his criticisms of a schedule of matches full this season with more games now added to the agenda.

When the last 16 plays fall into the UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid has to navigate beyond Manchester City for a fourth consecutive season, with legs at home and visitors.

Added to three additional trips involved in the direction of Qatar and Saudi Arabia on both sides of the beginning of 2025, Ancelotti players clearly need a break, which will come in the Cup.

According to brand reports, the key trio Thibaut Courtois, Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe lost training today, and they are unlikely to begin in Leganes.

Courtois could receive a completely free night, with Andriy Lunin recruited among the positions, but Bellingham and Mbappe could remain in reserve in the bank.

The highest priority of Ancelotti is a possible decisive for the title of the League against Atlético de Madrid this weekend, and wants its main stars to fit, with Antonio Rudiger already ruled out through an injury.

David Alaba could receive a first beginning in more than 13 months as Rudiger’s replacement with Ancelotti anxious to test Austrian’s abilities before those two fight against Pep Guardiola at the end of this month.

Based on the victory over Celta Vigo in the previous round, Ancelotti could update most of his team, despite his desire to win the competition.

The Italian has never won the League, the Copa del Rey and the triples of the Champions League, in two periods in Madrid, and despite the excessive amount of games, he wants to continue fighting on all fronts in 2025.
