Real Madrid team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Real Sociedad

Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash with Real Sociedad.

Real Madrid will be looking for their third straight La Liga victory when they travel to top-four challengers Real Sociedad on Sunday night.

Zinedine Zidane's side have beaten Eibar and Valencia in their two matches since the 2019-20 campaign resumed amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Los Blancos are currently just two points off league leaders Barcelona, although the Catalan giants will have the chance to stretch their advantage to five points when they face Sevilla on Friday night.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Madrid's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's clash.


Luka Jovic

Possible return date: June 24 (vs. Mallorca)

Jovic has been unavailable for selection due to the fracture on his right foot that he picked up during the lockdown period. The Serbian has now returned to training, though, and could play a part in the team's next home league match against Mallorca on June 24.

Madrid revealed earlier this month that versatile defender Nacho had picked up a thigh injury during a training session. The capital giants did not mention a timeframe when they confirmed the Spaniard's problem, although he is not expected to return to action until the start of July.
