Real Madrid team news

Xabi Alonso’s side face the season opener missing key first-team players due to injuries. Eduardo Camavinga is sidelined with a sprained right ankle sustained in training and will miss the Osasuna match as well as upcoming fixtures. Jude Bellingham is still recovering from shoulder surgery and is expected to be out until October. Forward Endrick and left-back Ferland Mendy also remain unavailable due to muscular injuries.

Antonio Rüdiger is suspended for the opener due to a disciplinary incident from the Copa del Rey final. Defensive reinforcements Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dean Huijsen, and Álvaro Carreras are available following their summer signings.

David Alaba is recovering from a meniscus injury and is expected back in late August. Alonso has signalled a need for strong squad discipline, warning that starting spots will depend on form and attitude, with no player guaranteed a place.

This match marks a pivotal moment for Alonso’s regime as he looks to build cohesion and lay down a marker in his first La Liga game at the Bernabéu.
