Cristiano Ronaldo in, Kaka out for Real Madrid

Cristiano Ronaldo has been passed fit to feature for Real Madrid against Valencia tomorrow evening.

The 26-year-old picked up a thigh injury during Portugal's 6-2 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina on Tuesday evening, but Real's assistant coach Aitor Karanka has revealed that Ronaldo will travel with the squad.

There is not such positive news for Brazilian international Kaka, who will play no part at the Mestalla despite making a return to training earlier this week.

"Cristiano trained yesterday and the day before yesterday," said Karanka. "He's fine. Marcelo is in the squad-list, but Kaka isn't.

"Nuri Sahin might play depending on how the match goes."

Madrid are currently top of La Liga, while opponents Valencia are in fourth.
