REAL MADRID

Keylor and Bale out for Wembley, Isco and Varane doubts

Zinedine Zidane is facing an increasing number of selection problems with Kaylor Navas and Gareth Bale guaranteed absentees for the trip to London.

Gareth Bale and Keylor Navas will play no part in Wednesday's Champions League Group H match against Tottenham at Wembley Stadium.

Neither player trained with the rest of the squad at Valdebebas this morning with the Costa Rican goalkeeper still suffering the hangover of the injury sustained with his national team. Bale is still recovering from his calf injury and despite the Cardiff born player returning to training alone, he is still some way off full match fitness. His absence from the game on Wednesday is a blow for the Welshman depriving him of a chance to face his former team.

More injury worries

Yesterday's away game in Girona has given Zidane more headaches apart from the scoreline that sees the side from the capital some eight points behind table topping FC Barcelona. Defender Raphael Varane and Isco both picked up respective knocks in Montilivi with the French international's presence being in serious doubt after a thigh problem whilst it's anticipated that Isco's knock is not so serious with the Benalmadena born player expected to form part of the travelling party which depart for London on Tuesday.
