Mourinho plans rotations for Real Madrid’s match against Villarreal

Jose Mourinho is preparing for Real Madrid’s first match after the international break against Villarreal on October 10. The club has already seen injuries to Ibrahima Konate and Kylian Mbappe, prompting Mourinho to focus on managing the squad effectively. Several bench players, including Alvaro Carreras and Trent Alexander-Arnold, may start as Mourinho looks to rest key players. This match will serve as an opportunity to address issues highlighted in recent games, particularly after a disappointing performance in the Madrid derby, and may help in filling gaps left by injured stars.
