MARCELO NEWS

Expected out for longer Marcelo (hamstring) isn't expected to return until the October international break, according to MARCA.

Impact Both Marcelo and Ferland Mendy (leg) are dealing with muscular issues that have kept each out for sizable portions of the season already. As a result, there's a few more weeks for Miguel to rack up starting chances before the competition gets tougher with his teammates.

Out Wednesday Marcelo didn't make the squad list for Wednesday's UCL trip to Inter Milan because of a hamstring issue.

Impact Marcelo was neither mentioned in the training report as an injured player or with conclusive news elsewhere. This is a likely indication of some muscular issue arising during training and it will take a little time to hash out how serious his newest problem will be. In his absence, Miguel will continue to get chances at left-back and David Alaba is also available in that position.

On bench against Celta Marcelo made the bench for Sunday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Marcelo has yet to play this season but will be a welcome boost of experience with the Champions League about to begin. With Miguel getting another start at left-back, Marcelo may not have much of a starting role in league games.

Training in full Marcelo (strain) is training in full ahead of Sunday's match against Celta Vigo.

Impact Marcelo missed the first three matches of the season because of a nagging injury suffered in preseason. It's unknown what his role will be with the team this season, but Real Madrid are missing some bodies on the back line and he could receive a start if ready immediately following the break.

Absent once more Marcelo (strain) is not in the preliminary squad for Saturday's trip to Betis.

Impact Marcelo will miss another match despite suffering from a "small strain." The defender has now missed a full month of action, and won't be appearing before the international break. Marcelo has until Sept. 11 to get healthy with the international break coming up.

Dealing with injury Marcelo is dealing with a small injury ahead of Saturday's season opener against Deportivo Alaves, according to manager Carlo Ancelotti.

Impact Marcelo is expected to miss the trip to Vitoria-Gasteiz, but the pending return of Ferland Mendy (leg) means that there shouldn't be much issue positionally in filling the left-back spot in the lineup. Aside from Mendy, Miguel could also get the start, depending on how things shake out.

Out against Granada Marcelo didn't make the squad list for Thursday's trip to Granada.

Impact There doesn't seem to be a publicly shared reason why Marcelo was left out, so one can assume it was probably a technical or rest-related choice by manager Zinedine Zidane. With only four healthy defenders available, it looks like Miguel Gutierrez will make his first start of the season at left-back. So far, Gutierrez has come off the bench three times over the last three weeks.

Pictured in training Marcelo (thigh) was pictured in training Tuesday ahead of the Aug. 7 match against Man City.

Impact This is a good sign for Marcelo, especially more than a week ahead of the Aug. 7 Champions League fixture. If he can get a full week of training in, he'll be an option to start against Man City despite last appearing July 5 for Los Blancos.
