Eder Militao back in training as Real Madrid shifts focus to Champions League after La Liga draw

Real Madrid is eager to move on from the controversial events at Mestalla and shift their full attention to the upcoming Champions League clash with Leipzig.

The team is preparing for the second leg of the round of 16, aiming to capitalize on their 0-1 away win in Germany three weeks ago.

In Tuesday’s training session, the notable inclusion was Eder Militao, who participated in exercises alongside his teammates.

The Brazilian defender, recovering from torn ligaments, is progressing well, and his return to Ancelotti’s squad is anticipated in April.

Following Girona’s loss to Mallorca (1-0) and Barcelona’s draw in San Mamés (0-0), Real Madrid’s frustration over the controversial events in Valencia has slightly eased.

The team is determined to make amends in the Champions League.

The training session also saw the presence of long-term injured players, including Courtois and Alaba. Both Militao and Courtois engaged in individual and group exercises, signaling their potential availability by the end of April.

Despite the positive atmosphere, Bellingham and Camavinga face potential sanctions. If cautioned against Leipzig and Real Madrid advances, they would miss the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

Real Madrid remains focused on their Champions League campaign, and the team is optimistic about a strong performance against Leipzig.

Ancelotti’s squad is determined to turn the page on recent controversies and deliver a convincing display in their pursuit of European glory.
