Real Madrid will play against Asvel on the road in the 17th round of the EuroLeague. The EuroLeague leader is heading to France without four players.
Real Madrid currently tops the table with 15 wins and 1 loss, while Asvel sits at the bottom with only two wins and 14 losses.
“Royal Club” is visiting Gianmarco Pozzecco’s team on Thursday, but they will be weakened by the absence of four players. The audience at the new LDLC Arena won’t see Guerschon Yabusele, who played for Asvel from February 2020 until the end of the 2020-21 season. He has been sidelined since the win in the ninth round of the EuroLeague against Monaco. Three more players have been added to the list of absentees: Mario Hezonja, Gabriel Deck, and Rudy Fernandez.
“There are significant losses, and we will notice that. We have physical problems that we will have to solve, among other things. I hope it won’t last too long, but we will be without some players for a while. We will have to do it not so much by memory as we have been doing,” said Real Madrid coach Chus Mateo.
