'He's not relapsed at all. His progression is normal and what he's doing, he's doing well,' Zidane said at a press conference on Friday. 'We don't want to risk anything. The most important thing is to recover, return to the group and to train normally,' he added. Real Madrid is set to take on Leganes in a league match on Saturday, and Bayern in the Champions League on Tuesday, May 1.
