The Blancos have received a major squad boost upon their return to La Liga action this weekend.
Karim Benzema has confirmed his return to Real Madrid’s training ahead of their upcoming match against Osasuna.
Benzema suffered a knee injury that kept him out of Real Madrid’s last three games before the international break.
In his absence, Real Madrid continued their perfect start to the season, beating Mallorca, Leipzig and Atletico Madrid.
The Blancos now welcome back their star striker, who is ready to start in his side’s next league match.
“I’m pleased to be back with the team,” he told the club’s official website. “It’s been some time [away] and I’ve had time to do a pre-season.
“I’m feeling very good, comfortable. I’m looking forward to the game on Sunday.
“I’ve been doing a lot of fitness work. I’ve not touched the ball but I trained for the first time today. and done a lot of running and strength training over the past few days.
“I also worked out at home. I was a bit late back from my holidays and I didn’t have much time to do a good pre-season, which is why I’ve done it now and I feel very good.”
