9 Real Madrid youngsters to be included in squad for USA pre-season tour

A whole host of highly-regarded young members of the youth setup at La Liga giants Real Madrid are in line to travel with the club’s first-team squad, for their upcoming pre-season tour of the USA.

For those not aware, the Spanish champions are primed to make their way stateside later this week.

As much, for the most part, comes with a view to ramping up their preparations for the new campaign, with friendly fixtures against some of the continent’s leading clubs having been scheduled.

Also on the agenda for Carlo Ancelotti and his coaching staff, though, will be affording a chance to impress to some of the club’s young stars.

And in line for as much, it is understood, will be no fewer than nine players currently plying their trade at academy level in Spain’s capital.

That’s according to Relevo, who have confirmed that:

‘Among the youth-team players who will be on the list of those called up for the USA will be Álvaro Rodríguez and, barring any surprises, Nico Paz, Mario Martín, César Palacios, Gonzalo, Jeremy de León, Rafael Obrador, Raúl Asencio and Lorenzo Aguado.’
