He Real Madrid He continues to suffer with injuries. The midfield is where there is the most competition, but it is the most diminished area now with the losses of Tchouaméni, Camavinga and Ceballos, who in his case is already facing the last phase of his recovery. The coach loses his two pivots with the loss of his two French players. In the absence of further evidence, Camavinga would be out for at least six weeks while Tchouaméni has another six weeks.
This was Camavinga’s clash with Démbéle: his cries of pain say it all…
So Ancelotti will be forced to recompose his midfield and it will be necessary to see if his 4-4-2 scheme with a diamond, with Bellingham behind the two strikers. The Italian knows that English is fixed, so there are three places left for Kroos, Modric and Valverde, and the couple that the German and the Croatian have formed for so many years and that was losing weight could regain its prominence if it maintains the scheme. The other option is to return to 4-3-3. What remains to be known is how you will place the pieces. Everything indicates that the German could be the pivot, escorted by Modric and Valverde, and Bellingham further up.
Ceballos, back on the grass
The good news for Ancelotti is that Ceballos is beginning to see the light and can take advantage of these two weeks of break to be available to the team again. This morning he has already trained on the grass although alone, just like Bellingham. The next league match is on the 26th against Cádiz and three days later it’s Naples. This season Ceballos has lost the prominence of last season and that made him win the renewal when everyone saw him already outside Madrid. On the one hand, the emergence of Bellingham in the area of the field where the Utrerano shines the most and also the injuries have left him in the background. He was injured in preseason and was not able to make his debut until September 27 against Las Palmas. However, the coach announced before the match against Sevilla on October 21 that he was suffering a new muscle injury.
