The squad returned to the training grounds the day after thrashing Xerez 5-0 in order to prepare for Wednesday’s game against Villarreal at 20.00 CET. Xabi Alonso trained outdoors but on his own while Metzelder stayed in the gym recovering from his injury. Van Nistelrooy will undergo medical tests to reveal the injury he suffers. The starters on Sunday worked with less intensity than the main group.
Xabi Alonso severely bruised his triceps surae with affectation of the investing fascia of the soleus muscle of the right leg in the game against FC Zurich and jogged on his own. His recovery is going well and confirmed yet another good news for Madridismo.
The only player to stay indoors was Christoph Metzelder. He is recovering from a grade I soleus muscle injury and bruised right calf muscle. Van Nistelrooy injured his left leg while netting the fifth goal for the Whites against Xerez and is being diagnosed by the Club’s medical staff.
As usual, coach Manuel Pellegrini held a team talk with his players prior to starting the session and devised two separate workouts for starters and bench players.
