Real Madrid are of course set to return to action on Friday evening, in a La Liga meeting with Manuel Pellegrini’s Real Betis.
Los Blancos’ squad for the fixture, in turn, was unveiled in the hours leading up to kick-off at La Cartuja.
And nowhere to be seen was the name of the aforementioned Aurélien Tchouaméni.
France international Tchouaméni has proven himself one of Real’s standout performers this season, therefore expected to feature from the off against Betis.
