Real Madrid trained at Valdebebas on Thursday morning in the knowledge that they will not have El Clasico to dispute this weekend, so they are now looking ahead to next Wednesday's visit of Leganes to the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
As he did in Wednesday's training session, Luka Modric worked with the group and is available for selection once again. The goal is now to get Gareth Bale back ready for action, having trained alone on the pitches on Thursday morning. The Welshman is still carrying an injury to his calf muscle that he picked up during the last international break.
Zinedine Zidane called upon Castilla defender Victor Chust and Juvenil A goalkeeper Luis Lopez for the session, while the only first-team players unavailable due to injury are Nacho Fernandez and Marco Asensio.
Real Madrid worked mostly with the ball during Thursday's session, and they are likely to take advantage of not having a match this weekend by allowing the players to rest.
