Real Madrid have received a triple injury boost ahead of their Spanish Super Cup final against Barcelona on Sunday.
The trio of Jude Bellingham, Luka Modric and Aurelien Tchouameni are all expected to be fit for the game in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
This was confirmed by manager Carlo Ancelotti, speaking ahead of the game with their LaLiga rivals.
“Jude Bellingham is fit and ready for the final, he has recovered well. Same for Modric and Tchouameni,” Ancelotti said.
“He is very important because he is on a good run. He is a player who has made the difference at the moment.”
Modric took part in yesterday’s training session after overcoming a viral infection.
Bellingham and Valverde finished the semi-final game against Mallorca with an overload.
During the session, the players who started against Mallorca, as well as Modric, were limited to recovery work. The substitutes worked in the gym and on the pitch, where they did physical series.
