According to a report published by the Spanish publication MARCA, it has been suggested that Vinicius Jr may be included in the starting lineup for Real Madrid’s forthcoming home match against Las Palmas, scheduled to take place on Wednesday, September 27th.
Earlier, it was reported that Vinicius, in conjunction with Arda Guler, participated in the training session today.
The original intention was for the Brazilian player to be included in the matchday roster for the highly anticipated derby against Atletico Madrid. However, he ultimately did not participate in the game. However, it is anticipated that he will make his comeback in the upcoming match against Las Palmas.
The events that transpired in the match against Atletico Madrid
The sentiments surrounding Vinicius were predominantly favorable as Real Madrid made preparations for their upcoming match against Atletico on Sunday.
The individual, aged 23, was anticipated to be selected for the matchday team. Although initially included in the squad list, the Brazilian player was subsequently withdrawn from participation due to gastroenteritis.
According to an official statement released by the club, Vini Jr. has been excluded from our matchday squad for the #AtletiRealMadrid game.
Real Madrid is employing a strategic approach in their operations.
It has been emphasized that Real Madrid has been employing a strategic approach in their collaboration with Vinicius. Despite attaining optimal physical condition, the coaching staff exhibits a cautious approach, refraining from taking any unnecessary risks.
It is important to acknowledge that the forward, who is 23 years old, participated in only three league matches prior to being sidelined for a duration of one month due to a hamstring injury.

Nevertheless, the setback he experienced due to a torn femoral biceps in his left leg during the match against Celta Vigo has now been overcome.
Consequently, a meticulously calibrated countermeasure has been devised, and if all proceeds according to plan, Vinicius, who has recently been selected for Brazil’s team in the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, may be designated as a member of the starting lineup against Las Palmas.
If such a scenario were to occur, it would be advantageous for Real Madrid. This is not only due to their previous unfavorable outcome, but also because the forthcoming series of matches will necessitate significant squad depth.
In the event of optimal alignment, spectators may witness his return to competitive engagement at the Santiago Bernabeu on the forthcoming Wednesday.
