The white team continues its tune-up for the upcoming season. Last Saturday, the 'merengues' drew 2-2 against Fiorentina in Austria, after a good start with goals from Endrick and Alexis Ciria, but fatigue allowed the Italian team to equalize in the second half.
For this match, Vinícius Júnior will debut his contract extension until 2032, following a week of training marked by uncertainty about his future. Also traveling are Bernardo Silva, whose position on the field is uncertain, and Brahim Díaz, who joined this week. Antonio Rüdiger and Dean Huijsen return after recovering from physical issues.
Yan Diomande, signed this week but yet to train with the team, will not travel. Meanwhile, Denzel Dumfries has already had minutes without looking out of place.
Ferencvaros comes into the match with more match fitness, being involved in the third qualifying round of the Europa League. Five days after this game, they will play the second leg of their tie against Polish side Gornik Zabrze. Coincidentally, Madrid previously faced the latter in the Champions League group stage in the 1995-96 season.
