Real Madrid welcomed injured defender Éder Militão back to training on Thursday as they continued their preparations for Saturday’s crucial game against Villarreal.
The Brazilian was forced off at half-time of the harrowing 5–2 defeat to Atlético Madrid last weekend, when the score was still 2–2, after blocking a powerful strike from Alexander Sørloth left him in pain. He was rested for the midweek 5–0 win over Kairat Almaty in the Champions League.
