Barrene managed carefully, no comebacks expected as Real Sociedad visit Real Madrid | OneFootball

Real Sociedad head to Real Madrid after an opening defeat, with the same group and no comebacks expected, while Ander Barrenetxea is being treated with caution.

According to Diario Vasco, the winger missed Monday’s session as a precaution because of a calf contusion suffered against Betis, which forced him off on 55 minutes. In principle, he could be involved.

Gonçalo Guedes and Jon Gorrotxategi have trained fully but lack the sharpness for such a demanding trip to the Bernabéu. This game appears too soon for their return.

Matarazzo is waiting for them but wants them at full capacity with minimum risk of relapse. Odriozola and Pablo Marín are ruled out 100%, continuing to work separately.

With zero signings as of 24 August, Matarazzo is again turning to the B team. Sanse players Fraga, Beitia, Aguirre, Lebarbier, Marchal and Carrera trained with the seniors, alongside Ochieng, who now wears 12.

Jon Karrikaburu continues to train while his move to Burgos, or another suitor, is yet to be finalised.

Before the session, Marchal, Aihen and Lebarbier gave short speeches to the group, then took the customary playful slaps in the usual initiation ritual.
