Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane says the club will remain patient with Cristiano Ronaldo as he continues his recovery from injury.
Strike pair Ben Yedder, who scored 62 Ligue 1 goals for Toulouse over the past four seasons, and Atletico Madrid loanee Vietto, who showed plenty of promise in a 20-goal spell at Villarreal last term, are arguably the most eye-catching captures.
The UEFA Super Cup is the traditional curtain-raiser to the European season, played between the winners of the Champions League and the Europa League. With team captain Sergio Ramos, Dani Carvajal, Raphael Varane, and Marcelo manning the backfield, Los Vikingos are still favored to win their second Super Cup title in the last three years.
“It’s great to be back at Real Madrid, which is where I want to be”, the Spain striker said.
Zidane will have to discard two players from his preliminary squad of 20.
SB Nation reported that his other highly-acclaimed teammates, Gareth Bale, Toni Kroos, and Pepe, will also miss the game while French striker Karim Benzema is doubtful to start the match and play the full 90 minutes also because of an injury.
Sampaoli, who took over after Unai Emery moved to Paris St Germain in June, is relishing the opportunity to showcase the change in his team’s philosophy. “But we are planning to make things hard for them in Trondheim, and I really think we will do so”, Sampaoli said.
