Real Madrid Full-backs currently out injured

Marcelo is the ninth injury for Real Madrid

Carvajal out for next month

Injured Real Madrid defensive duo Dani Carvajal and Marcelo are set to rejoin training next week ahead of a return against Napoli in the Champions League.

The Brazilian hasn't featured since picking up an injury against Malaga on January 21, while his teammate has been out since Los Blancos' 2-1 loss at Sevilla the previous week.

However, both men could line up for Los Blancos on February 15 during the first leg at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.

Although it was estimated that Marcelo would be out for three to four weeks, the Brazilian has already made major strides and has almost put his femoral biceps strain behind him.

As for Carvajal, the player himself has confirmed that he is almost ready too.

"If all goes well, then I will be back in training next Tuesday with the team," he said.

"I'm working hard to get back and have already started working without the ball."

The club have earmarked their February 11 clash against Osasuna in Pamplona as being the potential date for his comeback and a good test for him ahead of Napoli's trip to the Spanish capital.

In their absence, Zinedine Zidane has been forced to look for different solutions, testing Danilo on the right flank and Nacho on the opposite flank.
