Although the results have started coming for Real Madrid, it is still clear that the Merengues are performing far from their best version. Mbappe seems to be still adapting to his new team, although he has now started scoring goals, and has scored in all of his last three games.
Still, there are doubts arising about the team’s balance, and Ancelotti himself was reported to be considering a formation change to bring more defensive solidity to his side. One of the options he is considering is to put in a four-man midfield for the more demanding matches.
In this regard, MARCA reports that Ancelotti can receive a significant boost to his midfield for the upcoming Madrid derby, as Eduardo Camavinga’s recovery is going quite well and he can return to availability ahead of schedule.
The French midfielder has not yet been able to make his debut this season, as he suffered an injury right before the UEFA Super Cup which has kept him out for the ensuing 49 days. His absence has been quite significant for the Merengues, as there is no other player who offers the ability to break lines, reach the opposition area, and steal balls from the opposition with crunch tackles that he does.
With his recovery going quite well, he is expected to return to training in the coming few days. The club’s doctors believe that he can soon make his return to the pitch, and their objective is now to have him ready for the upcoming match against Atletico Madrid, two weeks ahead of his planned return.
The way the Frenchman has recovered from this injury and his history of recovering from physical issues ahead of schedule on two other previous occasions provide further optimism for Ancelotti that he can have the midfielder available for the upcoming match against Atletico Madrid.
