Real Madrid squad named for Liga BBVA match against Betis

It's homecoming time for Real Madrid. Benítez's side are desperate to get the three points against Betis after getting a disappointing draw to Sporting Gijón in their Liga BBVA opener. It's too early to tell but Atlético and FC Barcelona are both ahead of Real Madrid in the table.

Goalkeepers: Kiko Casilla, Keylor Navas and Rubén Yáñez.
Defenders: Varane, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo, Carvajal and Danilo.
Midfielders: Kroos, James, Bale, Casemiro, Kovacic, Modric and Isco.
Attackers: Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and Jesé

This certainly looks like Real Madrid's squad. Los Blancos could still add David De Gea if Manchester United agree to complete the transfer, but the rest of the players seem ready to stay after Real Madrid announced the departures of Lucas Silva, Coentrao and Illarramendi during the last few days.

Betis will try to make things difficult for Real Madrid but Los Blancos should earn a comfortable home win against the Andalusian team.

Update

Nacho and Lucas Vázquez are finally out of the list.
