The dressing room!!
According to Juanfe Sanz, from El Chiringuito TV, Real Madrid players have already believed that they lost the league, so they should focus on the Champions League. Los Blancos respect Atalanta, but believe that they can beat them and the following phrase circulates in the dressing room:
apart from the two games against Atalanta, we have 5 matches left to win the Champions League
When will Zidane return?
According to Diario Sport, Zidane still has Covid-19 symptoms, like fever, cough and a headache. He will have another test in 3 days as soon as he recovers from symptoms.
Contract renewals.
According to AS, the club won’t renew with Isco and Marcelo while Nacho is a possibility.
Marca stated that Real Madrid is favoring savings and economic stability during this moment of crisis. So, the renewal policy is inflexible and only Modric has an agreement.
The club wants Varane and Benzema to continue, but the plan is year to year renewal.

We’ve got more social media followers than any other football club!
