A number of Real Madrid’s injured players have been able to make a full recovery thanks to the midseason break that occurred before the action resumed.
All of the players, including Dani Carvajal, Vinicius Jr., Arda Guler, and Eduardo Camavinga, have returned to the team’s training sessions, and it is anticipated that the most of them will be ready to play against RCD Mallorca in a couple of days.
On the other hand, the same cannot be said for Ferland Mendy, who is another one of Los Blancos’ wounded talents.
There has been no training for Ferland Mendy yet.
According to the Madrid Athletic Club (MARCA), Mendy has not yet returned to exercise with the rest of the Real Madrid team. In point of fact, the French left-back did not participate in the twenty-fourth session that took place earlier today.
After suffering an injury during the encounter against Villarreal, the 28-year-old player was unable to participate in the match against Deportivo Alaves, which was scheduled to take place just before the Christmas break.
It was previously anticipated that Mendy would be able to heal in time to make a comeback for the opening game of the new year, which was scheduled to take place on January 3 against Mallorca.
However, given that the former Olympique Lyon star has not yet returned to training, it is almost certain that he will not be ready to play against Mallorca.
Mendy to return for Spanish Super Cup
According to the story that was cited earlier from MARCA, it is anticipated that Mendy will come back ready and healthy for Real Madrid’s next matches in the Spanish Super Cup, which will take place next month.
On January 10, Los Blancos are slated to face Atletico Madrid in the semi-finals of the tournament that will take place in Saudi Arabia. Should they emerge victorious, they would be guaranteed a final match against either Barcelona or Osasuna.
In light of the current circumstances, it is anticipated that Mendy will be fit in time for the match against Atletico Madrid. Additionally, fellow Frenchman Eduardo Camavinga, who may not be risked against Mallorca this week, is also anticipated to be ready in time.
