Gareth Bale and Toni Kroos are
set to make their first Real Madrid appearances since last season in a
friendly against Reims on Tuesday.
Bale and Kroos
were given extended breaks after representing Wales and Germany
respectively at Euro 2016, with both teams reaching the semi-finals in
France.
Neither player was deemed fit enough to
take part in the UEFA Super Cup victory against Sevilla in Trondheim on
August 9, but could be back in action against Reims on Tuesday having
been named in Zinedine Zidane's 22-man squad.
Ronaldo, and centre-back
Pepe, returned to training last Wednesday, but both players will wait
before pulling on the white shirt this season.
Goalkeeper
Keylor Navas underwent Achilles surgery in June and will not feature,
while Karim Benzema is rested after featuring as a substitute in the
Super Cup win.
Real Madrid squad to face Reims:
Goalkeepers: Casilla, Yanez.
Defenders: Carvajal, Ramos, Varane, Nacho, Marcelo, Danilo, Lienhart, Tejero.
Midfielders: Kroos, James, Casemiro, Kovacic, Modric, Asensio, Isco, Enzo.
Forwards: Bale, Lucas Vazquez, Morata, Mariano
