Real Madrid Confidencial The 6 Real Madrid starters who aren't playing today against Leganés in Copa del Rey
These 6 Real Madrid starters won't be in the Cup and Ancelotti makes clear who will be the rotations
The white team has a match tonight that will be of great importance for the season, which is against Leganés in the Copa del Rey. Due to the great importance of this match for winning titles, they can't afford any surprises. However, there are six players who won't be able to play this match and who are of great importance.
The players we already knew wouldn't be there are the most recent injured Antonio Rüdiger, Eduardo Camavinga, and David Alaba. However, now Courtois, Mbappé, and Bellingham, who have discomfort, are also added to the list. This could be quite detrimental, as they are players of great importance for the team, although they have great substitutes in the squad.
Due to this, it seems that now it will be the great opportunity for players like Jacobo Ramón, Raúl Asencio, and even Endrick to prove themselves once again. Something that could consolidate them more and more in the first team for this final phase of the season.
Six major absences in the club
In defense is where they are having the most possible problems due to the last-minute absences of important players. In the case of Camavinga, he was already dealing with an injury and it seems he won't recover in time.
The case of Courtois seems to be something completely different, as it's time to give Lunin some playing time. On the other hand, both Bellingham and Mbappé have a problem with some bruises and therefore won't be available to give them rest.
These rotations are with the full intention of being well-prepared for the most important matches coming up in the next few days. It's important to remember that there's a classic in between just before the match at the Etihad Stadium against Manchester City for the UEFA Champions League.
Let's hope it works
We've seen on other occasions how sudden rotations end up affecting the white team's results in this competition. However, Ancelotti has full confidence that his players will give everything for the team and will prove that they are great substitutes.
