Real Madrid are gradually getting their players back in shape for this pre-season, during which the Whites will play three friendlies against AC Milan, Barcelona, and Chelsea. A significant portion of the Merengue squad is already training in the United States under Carlo Ancelotti's guidance, although some players have yet to join the team. Specifically, Rodrygo, Militao, Vinicius, Carvajal, Valverde, Bellingham, Mendy, Tchouaméni, Camavinga, and Mbappé are still on vacation.
These players are making the most of their final days of rest, particularly the Brazilians, who will soon head to the U.S. They are the only first-team players yet to join the American tour, as the rest will remain on holiday until August 7, when they will return to training in Valdebebas, focused on the European Super Cup against Atalanta on August 14.
The Brazilians will not play against AC Milan in the first friendly on August 1, but they might feature against Barcelona in Real Madrid's second match in the U.S. According to Relevo, Vinicius, Rodrygo, and Militao will begin training on August 1 in Chicago during the evening session. While the coaching staff aims to manage their workload carefully, the club hopes to have them ready to play a few minutes in the match against Barça on August 4 in New Jersey.
