Casualties due to injury at Real Madrid raise the manager’s concern Zinedine Zidane. At the last minute Marcelo Vieira is reported as injured and the club is left with only three defenders in the first team.
Although the Brazilian started his last training without discomfort, and joking with his colleagues, suffered an injury that leaves him out of the call for the match against Granada , which will be played this Thursday.

If the casualties of Dani Carvajal, Sergio Ramos, Lucas Vázquez, Raphael Varane and Fernando Mendy meant a challenge for Madrid to play at all levels, now they have to add the absence of another of their best defenders.
This situation leaves Zidane alone with Militao, Nacho Fernández and Álvaro Odriozola in the defense of the club.

That’s why Miguel Gutiérrez and Mar vin will enter as possible solutions in the call for the whites, before the meeting this Thursday, as part of the day 36 of the league.
Marcelo’s injury arrives at a bad time. The team enters the final phase of the fight for the title, and needed their presence to strengthen the work in defense.
The Brazilian so far has only played 15 LiLiga matches this season , and has already conceded two goals.
