Cristiano Ronaldo left out of Real Madrid squad for Super Cup

Ronaldo left out of Real Madrid squad

Cristiano Ronaldo has been left out of Real Madrid's squad to face Sevilla in the European Super Cup on Tuesday.

The 31-year-old helped Portugal to Euro 2016 glory earlier this summer, but picked up an injury in the final that forced him to miss the majority of the win over France.

Ronaldo is one of a number of Euro 2016 participants to miss out on a place in the squad, with Pepe, Gareth Bale and Toni Kroos, the latter two of whom both reached the semi-finals in France, also absent.

Manager Zinedine Zidane has included Karim Benzema in the party to travel to Trondheim in Norway despite questions over the French striker's fitness, while returning forward Alvaro Morata is also in the squad.

There is also a place for Zidane's son Luca Zidane as the third-choice keeper to face last season's Europa League champions.

Real Madrid squad to face Sevilla:

Goalkeepers: Casilla, Yanez, Zidane

Defenders: Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Nacho, Danilo, Marcelo

Midfielders: James, Casemiro, Kovacic, Modric, Isco, Asensio, Llorente

Strikers: Benzema, Vazquez, Morata, Diaz
