Ancelotti gets back Asensio and Carvajal for final

Marco Asensio and Dani Carvajal trained on Thursday without problems and Real Madrid sources told 'EFE' that both will be available for Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the Club World Cup final against Al-Hilal on Saturday (20:00 CET). 

The winger had tests done after Sunday's clash with Mallorca for problems in his left quadriceps muscle and the tests ruled out any type of injury. That meant he could do work with the ball at the Mohamed VI sports complex.

As for Carvajal, who did not play against Al-Ahly in the semi-finals because of flu, he trained with the rest of the group without a problem and he will be in the final.

Therefore, Ancelotti has got two footballers back while Karim Benzema and Eder Miltao should arrive in Rabat on Thursday afternoon. How they train on Friday will determine whether they can take part in the final.
