Madrid squad list for Rayo Vallecano game: Vinicius out
Real Madrid announced their squad list for the La Liga match against Rayo Vallecano on Tuesday. Vinicius, who was sent off against Valencia, will not be available for Carlo Ancelotti.
Real Madrid are already preparing for their next La Liga match against Rayo Vallecano. Ancelotti's side have three games in hand and will try to regain second place in the Spanish league.
Carlo Ancelotti will not be able to count on Vinicius, who was sent off in the last game of the domestic competition against Valencia. The Brazilian assaulted Hugo Duro minutes after having a conflict with a fan who insulted him.
The left winger did not train with his teammates on Tuesday and was working out in the gym. Nonetheless, his manager is already considering giving him a week's rest.
Eden Hazard, who missed the game at the Mestalla stadium with an ankle injury, has been called up by the Italian. Moreover, Alvaro Rodriguez, who plays for the academy, will replace Vinicius on Wednesday. Mariano Diaz remains unavailable with a right thigh injury.
