Real Madrid will be without three stars for tonight’s first-leg Copa del Rey semifinal.
“Los Blancos” will face Real Sociedad in the Copa del Rey, and coach Carlo Ancelotti has decided to rest three players due to the tight schedule awaiting the Madrid team.
Kylian Mbappé will not be available for “Los Blancos” after missing yesterday’s training session due to tooth pain, which he later had removed.
Alongside the French forward, coach Ancelotti decided to rest goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and midfielder Federico Valverde.
The Madrid team has faced numerous injuries this season, and the Italian coach has tried to make adjustments by shifting players from one position to another.
Nevertheless, Real aims to secure a positive result tonight ahead of the return leg, which will be played at home in April.
