Zinedine Zidane taking full Real Madrid squad to Munich

Real Madrid name a bloated 24-man squad for their Champions League semi-final first leg against Bayern Munich, which must be reduced to 18 on Wednesday.

Zinedine Zidane has named a full complement of Real Madrid players for Wednesday evening's Champions League semi-final first leg against Bayern Munich.

The back-to-back European champions are to take a full 24-man squad to Bavaria, comprised of three goalkeepers, eight defenders, eight midfielders and five forwards.

Following Nacho's return from a hamstring injury, Zidane has decided against leaving any players behind for the Allianz Arena showdown.


Only 18 players can be named in the matchday squad, however, meaning that six members will be left watching on from the stands.

Madrid make the trip to Germany on the back of a disappointing run of form that has seen them win one of their last four games.
