Madrid: Real Madrid have left out goalkeeper and former captain Iker Casillas for Saturday's Primera Liga clash against Zaragoza.
Casillas has been back in full training for a week after recovering from a broken bone in his left hand, reports Xinhua.
Casillas had been expected to be included in the squad with the big question whether or not he would go into the first team ahead of Diego Lopez, who was bought from Sevilla in January. Lopez was brought in as a cover for injured Casillas.
"He (Casillas) was passed fit a week ago but he has not been passed as fit to compete. That is why he has not been called up," said Real Madrid assistant coach Aitor Karanka.
