Real Madrid announced on Sunday their 26-man squad for the tour of the United States. There is a large presence of academy players, with up to 11 players. Vinicius, Rodrygo, Militao and Jacobo Ramon will join the squad in the coming days.
Madrid have already set off for the United States to begin their summer tour. The Spanish team will be in the United States until 7 August, when they will return to Spain after playing their last friendly against Chelsea. Prior to that, they will face Milan and FC Barcelona.
Ancelotti has called up a number of academy players to complete the 26-man squad. They include Fran Gonzalez, Jacobo Ramon, Lorenzo, Obrador, Asencio, Joan Martinez, Nico Paz, Mario Marin, Palacios, Jeremy de Leon, Juanmi Latasa and Alvaro Rodriguez.
In relation to the first squad, there will be 14 players on the adventure in the United States: Courtois, Lunin, Eder Militao, Lucas Vazquez, Jesus Vallejo, Fran Garcia, Antonio Rudiger, Luka Modric, Arda Guler, Dani Ceballos, Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo, Brahim and Endrick.
Academy player Jacobo Ramon will join the squad during pre-season, as will Vinicius, Rodrygo and Militao. These three players are still on holiday after playing in the Copa America and everything seems to indicate that they will join the squad ahead of the ‘Clasico’ on Saturday 3 August.
Those who will not be in the United States are Ferland Mendy, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, Jude Bellingham and Dani Carvajal. The five players will enter the squad just a week before the European Super Cup against Atalanta.
