Gareth Bale is back in training but will once again be missing from the Real Madrid squad to face Real Betis.
The Wales forward, constantly linked with a move away from the Bernabeu, is still building up his fitness following injury, according to manager Zinedine Zidane.
Bale, 30, flew to England earlier this week fuelling more speculation that he could leave in January.
Zidane said at his pre-match press conference: “It’s old news. He’s here and back out on the pitch working to get fit again.

“We’re behind him, trying to get him back with the team as soon as possible. He’s here with us and back training.
“He’s back from his trip and is much better, but he’s still not available for selection. He looks in good shape to me.”
