lndeed, coach Carlo Ancelotti is now finally able to rest his top defensive player Antonio Rudiger, who has been an ever-present figure in the Real Madrid starting eleven in the wake of current injury scene.

Given the German’s challenges with fitness, playing him constantly always carried an acute risk of injuries.
