Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that veteran goalkeeper Iker Casillas has not suffered any major injury setback and should be available in "three or four" days.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Man Utd serious about signing Rafael Leao
  • The 32-year-old Spanish goalkeeper was handed his first start in a competitive fixture since January on Real Madrid's trip Galatasaray in the Champions League, in which the La Liga giants triumphed by a scoreline of 6-1.



    However, Casillas' return to the first team lasted only 14 minutes after a collision with his fellow teammate Sergio Ramos which forced the Spain skipper off the field of play with a rib injury.<br />

    Ancelloti told reporters: <em>"It was a good game. It was a fantastic result. We suffered a little bit in the first half.<br /><br />"Iker? Hopefully Iker will be back with us in three or four days."</em><br /><br />The Los Blancos are in search of their tenth Champions League title this season.
