Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti is happy with the competition he has in midfield.

Ancelotti is weighing up his selection for today's clash with Celta Vigo.

He said, "Competition is tough because I have so many top players. They're among the best in the world and that's not just me saying it. Casemiro, Kroos, Modrić, Valverde, who is very young but boasts spectacular quality…

"We've got Isco, Camavinga, Ceballos, who is coming back. It's a very complete squad and they have to be patient because not everyone can play. Patience is hugely important. It's also vital they accept my decisions because the competition is intense."

On Kroos' recovery, he added: "He's improving all the time and it's crucial we don't rush him. The best thing would be for him to recover as soon as possible and I think he'll be back with us soon enough, without having been hasty".
