Real Madrid star Aurelien Tchouameni is expected to be included in the squad that travels to Liverpool next week.
Los Blancos return to La Liga action this weekend at Leganes, ahead of the match at Anfield on November 27.
Carlo Ancelotti hopes his short-term injury list will be eased upon his return to Merseyside, with three players already ruled out until 2025.
Tchouameni is on a list of names not expected to be risked against Leganes, with the focus on Liverpool, and he is making good progress after an ankle injury.
The initial forecast over a sprain was for his return date to be early December, but that has now been brought forward following intensive rehabilitation during the international break.
According to reports from Diario AS, Real Madrid are confident he can play a role against the Premier League leaders, potentially deploying as a centre-back as he has done in previous European matches.
