Real Madrid team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Al Ahly

Sports Mole rounds up Real Madrid's injury and suspension news ahead of their Club World Cup semi-final clash with Al Ahly on Wednesday.

Real Madrid will endeavour to return to winning ways when they begin their Club World Cup campaign against Al Ahly in the semi-finals on Wednesday.

Real Madrid now turn their attention to the Club World Cup with a semi-final encounter against Egyptian outfit Al Ahly, who have beaten Auckland City and Seattle Sounders to reach the last four.
