Atletico Madrid's center-back joined the group yesterday, although workload will progress gradually, due to the head injury suffered in the September derby. If all goes as expected, he could already be called up for the first match after the break.

The Belgian goalkeeper was injured in the Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund and has missed 3 LaLiga matchdays since then (actually 2 matches because the Valencia match was postponed). Now it seems that he is in the final stretch of his recovery and could return in the next match against Leganés, at Butarque.

Atletico Madrid's midfielder is already recovered and training at the same pace as his teammates, so his return is ready for after the international break. Remember that Llorente got injured after matchday 8 and has not played a single minute since then.

Valencia must be eager to recover their best striker! Hugo got injured on October 27, in the match against Getafe CF, and has been sidelined since then. It is likely that he will be on the squad at least against Real Betis in the upcoming match after the break. The good thing about this Valencia player in Comunio, like all Valencia players, is that they have 2 more matches due to postponed games caused by DANA.

The Ukrainian winger is fully recovered and his national team has given him some rest, so he will arrive in top form after the break. Finally, some joy for Michel, who is starting to see the light after a forgettable start to the season.
