Return to work after Santander win
Madrid were back on the training ground on Monday after winning 3-0 at Racing Santander's El Sardinero in La Liga. Those who started carried out recovery work, while the rest of the squad completed a regular session packed with physical and tactical drills, plus simulations of different phases of play.
Valverde's fitness situation
Valverde sat out the Racing game with pain in the hamstring of his right knee. The issue dated back to the Clasico against Barcelona. GOAL, citing Marca, reported that Valverde trained normally alongside his teammates on Monday.
Availability for Wednesday
GOAL, citing Marca, reported that all the signs point to Valverde being ready for the Champions League meeting with AEK Athens in the fourth round on Wednesday. Raul Asencio and Rodrygo remain the only absentees, and everyone else is available, bar the usual minor knocks that crop up during a season.
