THE PREVIOUS
After three days of preparation in Los Angeles, the ‘White House’ arrives at this duel still with the positive inertia of their triumphs last year (LaLiga and Champions League) and with the confidence of having maintained the block.
Once the odyssey to sign Kylian Mbappé was resolved -unsuccessfully-, the Whites have signed Antonio Rüdiger, who arrived on a free transfer from Chelsea, and Aurélien Tchouaméni, from Monaco and who cost 80 million euros.
Both of them they might debut with Real Madrid in a game in which the white coach, Carlo Ancelotti, has Dani Carvajal as a doubt, who did not participate in the last training session in Los Angeles this Friday due to physical discomfort.
The one who will be in Las Vegas once morest Barcelona is Karim Benzema, who joined the Whites’ preseason directly in the Californian city on Tuesday and who has trained at the same level as his teammates and with total normality this week.
UPDATE:
It will be a Clásico that they will lose Dani Carvajal and Karim Benzema. Neither of them gets on the plane to Las Vegas. The right back suffered a blow to his ankle in the training session. Different is the situation of the French striker. Benzema joined the preseason in Los Angeles, skipping the Valdebebas stage, and that has caused his absence in the first duel of the course.
By the Barcelonathe European summer is leading to the culé club adding good news thanks to the financial operations for the sale of part of the club’s assets that are allowing it to sign players and this joy wants to be transferred to the pitch in the classic.

The Pole has faced Madrid eight times (with the shirt of Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich), in which he has scored six goals. He did four of them in the first leg of the semifinals of the 2012-2013 Champions League, in the 4-1 victory of Dortmund once morest the meringues.
