Real Madrid defender Antonio Rüdiger is preparing to return to the starting lineup after an injury.
Report, citing Diario AS, reports that the German footballer is expected to appear in the upcoming match against Real Sociedad.
Rüdiger will also be ready for the away game against Benfica in Portugal in the Champions League play-off stage.
His return creates serious competition for Din Heysen, who is in the starting lineup. According to the source, if Rüdiger is fully ready to play in the starting lineup next week, Heysen will most likely remain in reserve.
It should be noted that the Madrid representative, who started the season well under the leadership of Xabi Alonso, has had difficulty with consistent performance due to injuries since October.
