Real Madrid: Bale back in squad, Vinicius left out again
Gareth Bale has returned to the Real Madrid squad for Saturday's LaLiga clash with Real Sociedad, but Vinicius Júnior has been overlooked.

Gareth Bale is in the Real Madrid squad to face Real Sociedad on Saturday, but Vinicus Júnior has again been left out by head coach Zinedine Zidane.
Vinicius' omission comes despite the Brazilian spending the entire international break training under Zidane and seemingly being fully fit to play.
Bale in Real Madrid squad for first time in over a month
Having been at the centre of controversy in recent days, Bale is named in a matchday squad for the first time since Madrid's LaLiga win over Granada on 5 October.
The 30-year-old, who returned from a month-long injury absence to play in Wales' final two Euro 2020 qualifiers this international week, raised eyebrows on Tuesday by posing with a flag reading "Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order" as the Welsh celebrated reaching next summer's finals.
