Real Madrid boss Zidane to 'rest' Keylor Navas (again)

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane is ready to withdraw Keylor Navas from the frontline this weekend.

Don Balon says Zidane is set to drop Keylor for Kiko Casilla for the clash with Alaves.

The Real coach feels the Costa Rica goalkeeper is in need for a break after a series of inconsistent displays.

Keylor retains Zidane's confidence, but he will be invited to do a 'reset' from the bench this weekend and recharge his batteries.

It'll be the second time this year that Keylor has been dropped, having also been 'rested' for the clash against Espanyol last month.
