Vinicius Junior a Doubt Ahead of Real Betis Clash After Missing Out on Training Again With Illness

Real Madrid winger Vinícius Júnior could miss out on a place in their matchday squad this weekend after missing a second consecutive training session with the club as he's suffering with the flu.

The Brazilian has had an impressive start to his career at the Santiago Bernabéu, tallying up nine goal contributions in just 13 appearances across all competitions.

But amid an injury crisis in the Spanish capital, Marca report that Real Madrid could be left with just Karim Benzema as their only recognised forward this weekend as Vinícius hasn't trained with the squad due to illness.
