5 Real Madrid stars could return to starting roles vs Kairat | OneFootball

Heavy rotation is expected in the XI of La Liga giants Real Madrid in the club’s next outing.

That’s according to Blancos insider Melchor Ruiz of COPE, who has on Monday provided an insight into the latest developments behind the scenes in Spain’s capital.

Real Madrid are of course fresh off a weekend to forget.

After making the short trip to the Metropolitano for a derby meeting with Atlético Madrid, Real found themselves condemned to an embarrassing 5-2 defeat.

As much brought to an end what had been a flawless opening to the campaign on the part of Los Merengues.

In turn, it should not come as a major surprise to hear of Xabi Alonso preparing to shake things up in his XI.

As per a report from the aforementioned Melchor Ruiz, against Kairat in the Champions League on Tuesday:

‘Xabi Alonso could field three center-backs tomorrow, with Valverde and Fran García as wing-backs. Ceballos, Brahim, Camavinga, and Rodrygo could also make it into the lineup.’
