Ancelotti provides update on Bellingham and Rodrygo sickness

Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that despite falling ill, Jude Bellingham and Rodrygo are still expected to make the squad for the game against Real Sociedad on Friday. But there's bad news for Ferland Mendy.

"Bellingham had a stomach problem and Rodrygo had the flu, but they can still travel," Carlo Ancelotti said in his press conference for the game.

"Mendy is not going to travel, it's fine but I prefer him to stay working for the Champions League," the gaffer added.

Real Madrid needs two more wins and a draw to bag another La Liga title. It allows Ancelotti to rotate his players with a crunch Champions League game to come on Tuesday.
