This Saturday, the midfielder will almost definitely rest.
According to club sources, Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga did not exercise with the group on Friday and is questionable for Saturday’s match against Almeria due to muscle tiredness. Camavinga might play if necessary, but coach Carlo Ancelotti will most likely use the depth at his disposal to prevent risks.
Real Madrid were concerned about Camavinga’s soreness, but the various tests performed on his leg came back negative, indicating that the Frenchman should be ready to play as soon as he has a chance to recover.
Overall, Toni Kroos and Luka Modric will likely compete for a starting spot alongside Valverde in the team’s midfield, depending on what Carlo Ancelotti decides to do for what is expected to be a physically demanding game at Almeria, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 CET under the scorching sun of Andalucia.
