📋 Real Madrid name their Champions League squad, Mendy misses out

Real Madrid has officially announced their Champions League squad for the upcoming season, revealing that injured defender Ferland Mendy will be absent. The young Spanish player Sergio Martínez, a new signing who previously played for Racing de Santander and Castilla, will take his place. This unexpected move comes as a result of the numerous absences José Mourinho's team is facing this season.

During their Tuesday match against Inter Milan, Real Madrid will be without Arda Güler, Camavinga, and Bernardo Silva (all suspended), and possibly Mauro Tchouaméni, who is still recovering from a muscle injury. Among the eight players on List B included in the list submitted to UEFA on Friday, there are three defenders (Fortea, Joan Martínez, and Marios Rivas), four midfielders (Thiago, Cestero, Lacosta, and Valero), and forward Yáñez. Sergio Martínez concludes the roster of young talents.
