November 18 According to "World Sports" report, Real Madrid is preparing for an away game against Elche. The three injured players Mastantuono, Rudiger and Joan Armene are working hard to return in this round.

Real Madrid completed its second training session on Tuesday, and three injured players Mastantuono, Rudiger and Joan Armene are working hard to be included in the game roster. The three players continue to conduct individual training at courts 1 and 2 of the Valdebebas Sports City, and their goal is to return in this round of La Liga.

Five players will be available for the game against Elche. They either did not travel with the national team or returned early. Huizen, Mbappe, Camavinga, Valverde and Courtois will continue to train according to their respective plans, and Alonso will send them on the field.

Mbappe missed the French national team's second game against Azerbaijan during the November international match window due to right ankle discomfort and Kamavinga due to muscle problems. On the other hand, Huizen was unable to participate due to muscle overuse after leaving the Spanish national team training, but he was not injured and will be able to participate in the league after proper rest.

Similarly, Courtois failed to play for the Belgian team due to an injury to the adductor muscle of his right leg, and Valverde also missed Uruguay's two friendly matches due to a semimembranosus problem in his right leg, but they are both expected to play in the league.

With these players not yet fully recovered and seven players still absent due to national team duties - Vinicius, Rodrigo, Militao, Bellingham, Dias, Guler and Alaba, they will return to the team for training on Friday. Alonso and his coaching team placed special emphasis on physical training during Tuesday's training.

According to the club's official website, the players first practiced in the gym, then went to the grass to complete a "high-intensity physical training", and finally ended the training with a series of runs.
