Gonzalez ‘first appearance for the club lasted 22 minutes before he was withdrawn during the 2-1 victory in the fourth round on the 2-1 trophy on Saturday at the third level Leyton Orient, and manager Pep Guardiola hopes that Spaniard will have recovered.
The most important midfielder Rodri was a surprising addition to her European squad for the KO level, but has probably returned for several months because the Spanish international continues his recovery from a serious knee injury.
Goalkeeper Everson is excluded this month, but could return, while the central defender Nathan Ake and wing player Jeremy Doku are doubts.
The list of Defensive absences from Real Madrid extended itself during her 1-1 draw in Atletico Madrid on Saturday in La Liga.
The right-back Lucas Vazquez suffered a left thigh injury, with 19-year-old midfielder Chema Andres expanding her travel party in his place.
Manager Carlo Ancelotti had already been on the back without Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, David Alaba and Antonio Rudiger, so that the majority of the visitors could consist of players who are not familiar with their positions.
Ancelotti praised the 21-year-old Raul Ascio and Aurélien Tchouameni-normally midfielder for their performances in Center-Back against Atleti.
“For the game on Tuesday, we have to see the recovery of those who played,” he said, and seemed to indicate that Ferland Mendy could now also start to begin. “Those who have not played today have an advantage to play on Tuesday.”
The situation could definitely make Tchouameni, Camavavinga and Rudiger bookings that would expose them to the second leg.
