Following the humiliating 2-5 defeat at the hands of FC Barcelona last week, Real Madrid are back in action on Thursday night as they take on Celta Vigo in the Copa del Rey Round of 16.
In what will be their first match on home ground in 2025, the reigning Spanish and European champions will be keen on putting on a show for their fans and leave behind the disappointment of the Super Cup defeat.
Ahead of the game, manager Carlo Ancelotti has now released the squad list of players he will call up against Celta Vigo.
With the manager having already confirmed that Andriy Lunin will start in goal tomorrow, Thibaut Courtois has been given a rest for the match.
Meanwhile, David Alaba has still not been called up despite being back in training for a couple of weeks now. But youngster Lorenzo Aguado is on the list for the Celta Vigo clash.
Eduardo Camavinga, who did not train on Tuesday due to an illness, has recovered and is in the squad.
The likes of Raul Asencio, Arda Guler, and Brahim Diaz could be in line to get some minutes against the Galician club having not featured much during the Super Cup.
