Spanish La Liga giants, Real Madrid, are optimistic about welcoming back two key players for the upcoming UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg against Arsenal.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has expressed hope that both Dani Ceballos and Ferland Mendy will be fit for the UEFA Champions League match at the Emirates Stadium.
“We are actively working on the recovery of both Ferland Mendy and Dani Ceballos for the first leg against Arsenal,” the legendary Italian tactician stated. “Our goal is to have them back in action.”
Additionally, Ancelotti is hopeful that Kylian Mbappe, Antonio Rudiger, and Vinicius Jr. will not face bans from UEFA. The players are currently under scrutiny for alleged ‘indecent conduct’ during the Champions League Round of 16 second-leg match against Atletico Madrid earlier this month.
