Nacho is an important news in the call-up for the match with Leipzig

Nacho is the big news on Ancelotti’s list for the match against Leipzig this Tuesday (21:00) in the German fiefdom in the first leg of the 1/8 finals.

The coach reinstates the central defender at the moment when he has the most losses in the central defense. In the match against Girona, he had to resort to the help of Carvajal and Tchuameni. after not being able to count on Rüdiger and Nacho.

The German will continue to be unavailable and the big absence will be Bellingham.who was reported today to have suffered a serious ankle sprain and could be out for three weeks.

Against Leipzig, everything points to him lining up Nacho and Tchuameni in central defence.. The Spaniard trained normally this morning and entered the squad after overcoming some muscle discomfort that developed into an overload.

That is why Ancelotti chose not to force Nacho against Girona and be able to count on him in the match against Leipzig. The Italian held his breath after lamenting the accumulation of losses in the team’s defense in recent days.

The Englishman could miss up to four games and his goal is to participate in the return match with Leipzig.
