Real Madrid's squad list for Champions League opener: Bellingham bolsters midfield

Real Madrid will face their first game in this new Champions League as they take on Stuttgart at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. During the last training session before the call-up, Eder Militao was absent and there could have been some doubt about his presence but Ancelotti confirmed his availability in a press conference.
The Italian coach will also be able to count on Jude Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni. It remains to be seen what percentage they are now at full strength, but both have been included in the squad, with the injured Brahim Diaz missing, as expected.
Defenders: Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, Lucas Vazquez, Jesus Vallejo, Fran Garcia, Antonio Rudiger and Ferland Mendy
Midfielders: Jude Bellingham, Fede Valverde, Luka Modric, Aurelien Tchouameni and Arda Guler
Forwards: Vinicius Junior, Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo and Endrick
