Real Madrid are currently on a tour of the United States, with visits to the cities of Chicago, New Jersey and Charlotte planned. A number of players, including youth players Jacob Ramon and Fran Garcia, who just won the European U19 title, and Rodrigo, Vinicius and Militão, who played in the Copa America, will join the squad later.
Rodrigo's preparation:
Rodrigo has arrived in Chicago on Wednesday to meet his teammates. Although he has joined the set-up, in principle he will not play in the friendly against Milan and will have to sit on the bench due to lack of preparation time. Spanish media said Rodrigo has begun active training, the goal is to be ready for the national derby against Barcelona on August 4th.
Other player dynamics:
Vinicius and Militão are also expected to join the squad soon. The other absentees, including Mbappe, Mendy, Joan Armeni, Kamalinga, Valverde, Bellingham and Carvajal, will start training on August 7 at the Valdebebas base.
