Real Madrid's infirmary is increasingly empty. In the Friday morning training session, Zidane once again enjoyed the presence of Fede Valverde and Dani Carvajal in group training. Both are aiming for the derby. Hazard, Odegaard, Jovic and Mariano are still not playing.

It will be one of the most important matches of the year. The long-awaited derby between Real Madrid and Atlético will be played this Saturday 12 December at 9 p.m. in 'merengue' territory. 

And the good news for Zidane's team is that the infirmary is emptying little by little as the week goes by. After Fede Valverde trained with the group in the last session, this Friday he did so again.

Along with the Uruguayan, Dani Carvajal was also seen, who will be available to the French coach for the important league match against Simeone's side. 

Sergio Arribas, who had minutes in the Champions League, took part again in the session of the first team, so everything indicates that he will be called up again.

As far as absences are concerned, Hazard, Odegaard, Jovic and Mariano did not take part in the match, and Zidane still cannot count on them.
