Real Madrid have started their pre-season preparation, as reported on the club's official website. On Monday, August 4, players underwent medical examinations, and the first training session is scheduled for the evening.
Coach Xabi Alonso’s team returned from vacation 24 days after their last match of the previous season, a heavy 0-4 defeat to PSG in the semifinals of the Club World Cup. There wasn’t much time for rest, and now the players are gearing up for the new season.
In the last La Liga season, Real Madrid finished second with a total of 84 points. The team will play its first match of the new campaign on August 19 at home against Osasuna.
