Luka Modrić misses out – How Real Madrid’s midfield will set up vs Arsenal | OneFootball

An insight into the plans of the coaching staff at Real Madrid when it comes to the club’s midfield setup against Arsenal has on Tuesday afternoon been provided.

Real Madrid are of course primed to return to action later this evening.

Turning attentions back towards matters on the continent, Los Blancos have made the trip to north London, for a Champions League quarter-final first-leg meeting with Arsenal.

The reigning European champions will be forced to make do without some key performers for the clash, two of whom come in the middle of the park.

This comes with Dani Ceballos sidelined, and Aurélien Tchouaméni suspended.

Changes, in turn, are incoming in Real’s engine room at The Emirates.

As per a report from Marca, Los Merengues’ midfield three to face Arsenal will consist of Eduardo Camavinga, Federico Valverde, and Jude Bellingham.

This means no room for Luka Modrić, expected to be introduced to proceedings at some point during the 2nd-half.
