Fede Valverde Doesn't Train and Onda Cero Reveals if He'll Be Ready Against Atlético

One of the best players in the past Madrid classic was undoubtedly Fede Valverde. The Uruguayan, despite doubts about a possible injury, managed to make it to the match and performed outstandingly. However, the player hasn't returned to training with the team, raising doubts about his availability for the next classic.

"He's stiff, not more injured than before Atlético; he's still on the sidelines, improving." These were the words with which Onda Cero revealed whether Valverde could be in the classic. While there is still optimism regarding his presence, his condition remains somewhat alarming.

"He'll rest against Rayo...and returns vs Atlético on Wednesday," added Onda Cero to ensure the Uruguayan's presence. Even so, his situation warrants that the club be extremely alert to any complications or improvements.

Valverde's Condition

Being part of Real Madrid since 2018, Fede Valverde is a true leader for the team. Assuming the leadership of the midfield after Kroos's retirement, the Uruguayan has fulfilled this task with flying colors. However, after 3,469 minutes played this season, the player has been physically affected.

Despite not being injured, it is evident that Valverde is not in his best form. Onda Cero's revelation has been a relief ahead of the match against Atlético de Madrid, but Valverde's condition remains the same.

The rest for the match against Rayo Vallecano is expected to be enough for Valverde to fully recover. For now, it only remains to wait for the coming days to confirm if the 26-year-old player will be in the match against Atlético.

Real Madrid's Optimism

Despite the doubts surrounding Valverde, Real Madrid is confident in being able to count on their player. As in past seasons, the Uruguayan midfielder has the opportunity to demonstrate his physical strength. Although Onda Cero has been cautious, there are no indications to think that Valverde won't be able to recover.
