Endrick, Tchouameni, Rodrygo latest: Real Madrid injury, suspension list vs. Real Sociedad

Real Madrid will be targeting back-to-back wins when they take on Real Sociedad in Wednesday’s La Liga clash at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

Los Blancos secured a dramatic 2-1 away victory over Espanyol in the first game of Jose Mourinho’s second spell in charge.

Summer addition Carlos Espi struck in the 90th minute to snatch all three points with his first goal in a Real Madrid shirt.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of the club's first home game of the season against Real Sociedad, who started the campaign with a narrow 1-0 defeat against Real Betis.

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: August 26 (vs. Real Sociedad)

Endrick, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Lyon, was forced to miss Real Madrid's hard-fought win over Espanyol with a minor muscle problem.

The Brazilian is now looking to prove his fitness in time to make the bench for Wednesday's fixture.  


Aurelien Tchouameni

Status: Minor doubt

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: August 26 (vs. Real Sociedad)
