Federico Valverde - Training on gym Tuesday Valverde (ankle) was training in the gym Tuesday and didn't join the rest of the group, according to Santiago Siguero of MARCA.

Impact Valverde didn't train with the rest of the group Tuesday and didn't even leave the gym, so his chances of playing this Saturday against Villarreal are looking slimmer by the day. With five matches in a 15-day stretch right after the international break, Jose Mourinho needs all his players available, but risking Valverde's early return could lead to a bigger injury. A final call on his availability for the weekend should be made closer to Saturday's match, but the early signs aren't promising.

Kylian Mbappe - Remains in individual training Mbappe (knee) continued his recovery with an individual session Tuesday and did not train with the rest of the team, according to Ruben Martin of Diario AS.

Impact Mbappe has yet to take the anticipated step of rejoining team training, leaving his status for Saturday's clash with Villarreal up in the air. The forward has progressed to individual work on the grass, but he'll likely need to get through a team session before being fully cleared for match action. His availability will be worth tracking closely over the next few days, especially with Real Madrid potentially inclined to manage his workload after the knee issue. Mbappe has been on fire this season, piling up seven goals and two assists across seven LaLiga appearances. If he had to miss the clash, Endrick or Carlos Espi would get increased playing time.

Ibrahima Konate - Trains with strap on right knee Konate was spotted training with the team on Tuesday and wearing a strap on his right knee, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Konate had already been ruled out of Saturday's clash with Villarreal while working his way back from a knee injury, so his return to team training represents an encouraging step in his recovery. Real Madrid are thin at center back, with Dean Huijsen suspended and Eder Militao (hamstring) and Raul Asencio (lower leg) injured, making Konate's progress particularly important. Until he is back to full speed, Aurelien Tchouameni or Alvaro Carreras could be asked to provide emergency cover in central defense.

Impact Mbappe spent the second part of the international break working his way back from the knee injury he suffered with France, initially training on his own before returning to the grass for an individual session Monday afternoon and is now set to take the next step by rejoining the team on Tuesday. Tuesday's session will be the key checkpoint for his availability against Villarreal on Saturday, though Real Madrid could still manage his workload carefully given the knee issue and a demanding upcoming stretch with the Clasico against Barcelona at the end of the month. The forward has been in red-hot form this season, racking up seven goals and two assists across seven LaLiga appearances, making his status one to watch closely. If Mbappe isn't cleared to play, Carlos Espi or Endrick could step in to lead the line.

Kylian Mbappe - Spotted training on grass Mbappe (knee) was spotted training on grass Monday, but his status for Saturday's game against Villarreal remains uncertain.

Impact Mbappe spent the international break in France with the club's approval, but he didn't waste time and started working on the grass as soon as he returned. It remains to be seen if he'll play Saturday against Villarreal, as Real Madrid have a packed schedule over the next few weeks that includes matches against Manchester City and FC Barcelona, but his return to training with the ball is certainly a step in the right direction. If Mbappe, who has seven goals in LaLiga this season, doesn't play Saturday, look for Carlos Espi or Endrick to take his place.

Impact Mbappe spent the international break recovering in Paris with the club's approval, as the knee injury prevented him from returning to full training. His return to Madrid and the training ground in the coming days will mark the final stretch of his recovery, though Real Madrid could still manage his workload carefully against Villarreal given the knee issue. Mbappe has been firing on all cylinders this season, racking up seven goals and two assists across seven La Liga appearances. If he is unable to feature, Carlos Espi or Endrick could step in to lead the line.

Eder Militao - Expected back in November Militao (hamstring) should return to competition in November, according to Diario AS, per Madrid Xtra.

Impact Militao has been training in full with the team during the international break in his recovery from the torn femoral biceps tendon that required surgery in Finland in March. The November target suggests he still has to build on his fitness before making his return, although the Clasico game against Barcelona on Oct. 25 could also be a target for the Brazilian. Dean Huijsen, Ibrahima Konate and Antonio Rudiger should continue to hold down central defense until he is ready.

Ibrahima Konate - Set to miss Villarreal contest Konate (knee) is out for the Oct. 10 match against Villarreal as he continues his recovery, according to Joel Del Rio of Marca.

Impact Konate was looking to be tending in the correct direction for Real Madrid's first match back from the break, but that has quickly changed, as it appears the center-back will now miss out. This leaves Real Madrid in a dire situation, as Dean Hujsen is suspended, while Eder Militao (hamstring) and Raul Asencio (lower leg) remain injured. The good news is that Konate is unlikely to miss too much more time, potentially returning after the one match out. Real Madrid will likely look to shift Aurlien Tchouameni or Denzel Dumfries to a more central role, with Alvaro Carreras having a slight chance of starting in Konate's place as well.
