Ancelotti confirms Benzema, Courtois and Militao could be available for Club World Cup final
In the presser ahead of the Al Ahly game, Carlo Ancelotti was asked whether Karim Benzema, Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao could play in the Saturday final if Real Madrid qualify for it.
"That's why they are on the list. We've left them back in Madrid so that they have the best possible recovery. If we have to play the final on Saturday, they could travel here on Thursday," the coach said.
As confirmed by Ancelotti, the trio have been registered for the competition.
Judging by reports, Courtois has the best chance to recover in time. According to Arancha Rodriguez, the goalkeeper is only suffering from a muscle overland and should be available for Saturday.
