How will Ancelotti compensate for Diaz's absence?
Moroccan international Brahim Diaz has joined the list of injured players in Real Madrid's squad ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Stuttgart. Real Madrid said in a statement: "Following the tests carried out today on our player Brahim Diaz by the Real Madrid medical services, he has been diagnosed with a longus tendon injury in his right leg." According to the Spanish newspaper AS, Diaz will be out for three months due to a hamstring injury. Mundo Deportivo reported that, apart from the names that will replace Diaz, coach Carlo Ancelotti's lineup could also change with the return of Bellingham or Tchouameni, as the Italian could return to last season's 4-4-2 formation or explore a 4-2-3-1 formation with Jude Bellingham as a third behind Mbappe and Vinicius. Whatever the case, the first chance to know what Ancelotti's decisions will be in Tuesday's Champions League match against Stuttgart.
