Madrid, Nov 27 (EFE) .- The French Zinedine Zidane has included 19 players in the call for the game this Saturday (21.00 / 20.00 GMT) against Alavés, a short list due to the large number of casualties to which this Friday Dani Carvajal joined, and without any youth squad.
The right back was diagnosed with “a muscle injury in the right adductor muscle” that will keep him away from the pitch for two to three weeks. In addition, Álvaro Odriozola is still on leave with an injury to the calf of his left leg diagnosed on October 3, so Lucas Vázquez could return to occupy said demarcation.

Also injured are captain Sergio Ramos, injured in the hamstring during Spain’s 6-0 victory against Germany; Frenchman Karim Benzema, with hip discomfort; Uruguayan Fede Valverde, who suffers a fissure in the posterior tibial spine of his right leg; and the Serbian Luka Jovic who remains isolated at home after testing positive for coronavirus on November 20.
The good news that Zidane has received regarding the last call is the return of Brazilian Éder Militao. The central defender tested negative in the last LaLiga tests after having given an indeterminate result to the squad in the last two tests.
The French coach has not counted on any player from the quarry this time to cover the losses in defense -Víctor Chust- or in the position of center forward -Hugo Duro-.
– Call for 19 Zidane footballers:
Goalkeepers: Courtois, Lunin and Altube.
Defenders: Militao, Varane, Nacho, Marcelo and Mendy.
Centrocampistas: Kroos, Modric, Casemiro, Odegaard and Isco.
Forwards: Hazard, Asensio, Lucas Vázquez, Vinicius, Mariano and Rodrygo.
