Makes nine clearances in win Rudiger had nine clearances and one interception in Tuesday's 1-0 victory versus Benfica.

Impact Rudiger was solid in his first 90-minute outing since recovering from a knee issue. He completed 58 accurate passes while coming close to a double-digit clearance tally for the first time this season. Additionally, he earned his fourth clean sheet over 10 La Liga or UCL games played in the 2025/26 campaign. He'll look to retain a regular spot as part of a four-man back line if he stays fit for upcoming fixtures.

Option against Valencia Rudiger (knee) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Valencia.

Impact Rudiger was back in training this week and has made the team sheet, with the German an option for the first time in around a month. He should make it back to the starting XI next outing, with seven appearances (six starts), hoping to avoid the injury bug after already missing 21 games through injury this campaign.

Might return Sunday Rudiger (knee) could be an option for Sunday's clash against Valencia after training in full this week, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Rudiger was back in full training this week and is trending toward being available for Sunday's clash against Valencia. That would be a major lift for the backline since the German has been a regular starter when healthy and is positioned to step right back into a meaningful role with Eder Militao (hamstring) still sidelined for some time.

Returns to training Friday Rudiger (knee) returned to training Friday and could be an option for Sunday's game against Rayo Vallecano, according to Juan Ignacio Garcia of MARCA.

Impact Rudiger missed Wednesday's loss against Benfica in the UEFA Champions League, but his return to training suggests the center-back could be an option over the weekend. Rudiger hasn't played since the 5-1 win over Real Betis on Jan. 4. but if healthy, he should be an option to start right away.

Remains out Wednesday Rudiger (knee) remains out for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Benfica, the club posted.

Impact Rudiger resumed team training this week with Real Madrid but remains out for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Benfica since the game is coming too early for him. The defender has been dealing with a knee injury and will be expected to resume a decent role in the backline once fully back fit for the Merengues.

Training with team Rudiger (knee) was spotted training with the team on Monday, the club posted.

Impact Rudiger missed the last three games due to a knee injury but seems close to make his return to the match squad since he was spotted training with the team on Monday, two days before the Champions League clash against Benfica. His return would be a boost in the backline since he has been a regular starter prior to his injury and should regain that spot alongside Dean Huijsen until Eder Militao (hamstring) returns.

Remains out Rudiger (knee) remains out for the time being due to his discomfort, the club announced.

Impact Rudiger is dealing with knee discomfort and will miss a third game in a row across all competitions. The center-back wasn't training with the team on Friday and will hope to be back available for Tuesday's Champions League clash against Monaco. Until he returns, Raul Asencio and Dean Huijsen are expected to pair in the central defense for the Merengues.

Doesn't feature in final Rudiger (knee) didn't feature in Sunday's defeat against Barcelona in the Supercopa final and will have to be monitored due to his recent discomfort.

Impact Rudiger has been dealing with knee discomfort and was expected to feature in Sunday's Supercopa final before remaining an unused substitute during the match. This is somewhat concerning, as the center-back has been struggling with knee issues in recent seasons. If he were to miss some time to recover, Dean Huijsen and Raul Asencio could see increased playing time in central defense.

Won't miss Sunday's final Rudiger (knee) is dealing with discomfort but won't miss Sunday's Supercopa final against Barcelona, according to Miguel Angel Diaz from COPE.

Impact Rudiger is dealing with knee discomfort but is an option for Sunday's Supercopa final against Barcelona as he doesn't want to miss the game. The center-back will have to be monitored since he has been dealing with some knee issues in the last seasons and the staff will do everything to avoid any bigger setbacks. When fit, Rudiger is a regular starter in the backline for the Merengues.

Impact Rudiger was dealing with knee pain and couldn't continue the game in Thursday's win against Atletico in the Supercopa. The center-back was substituted in the 69th minute and his condition will have to be monitored ahead of Sunday's Supercopa final against Barcelona. If Rudiger had to miss some time, Dean Huijsen will likely find a starting spot again for the Merengues.
