Luka Modric has been included in Real Madrid’s squad for the derby against Atletico Madrid on Saturday.
The Croatia midfielder, who has been struggling with a muscular complaint, has not featured since the 2-2 draw with Villarreal on September 1.
Marcelo is not yet fit enough to take his place in the squad, however, meaning Nacho is likely to line up at left-back, while Isco is still out injured.
There is also no place in the squad for Rodrygo Goes, who scored on his senior debut in Wednesday’s 2-0 win over Osasuna.
The 18-year-old will play for the club’s Castilla side on Saturday against Rayo Majadahonda, rather than being involved with the first team at the Wanda Metropolitano.
