With Eden Hazard, Sergio Ramos, Marcelo, Rodrygo, Federico Valverde and Eder Militao also among his absentees, Zidane has admitted that he has been left frustrated by the situation.
Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Zidane said: “I don’t understand. There are a lot of injuries, I’m worried. When I lose a player, as a coach it bothers me. It’s a relapse
“I’m sorry for Carva. He played 25 minutes very well and I’m upset because he’s very important to us, but I can’t explain the reasoning to you. As a coach, having injuries is the worst. They’ve come back to hurt us again.”
Real only have two more fixtures to play during February, the next being against Real Valladolid on February 20.
