Real Madrid release their squad list for Saturday's Madrid derby against Atletico Madrid, with decisions being made on Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid have welcomed Lucas Vazquez, Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe back into their squad for Saturday's La Liga showdown with title rivals Atletico Madrid at Bernabeu.

All three missed out against Leganes in the Copa del Rey due to injury problems, but the trio have been passed fit for the Madrid derby, with Los Blancos releasing their official squad list on Friday afternoon.

Eduardo Camavinga has also been given the green light to return after a spell out with a muscular problem.

Meanwhile, there is a spot in the selection for Gonzalo Garcia, who scored his first Real Madrid goal against Leganes in the Copa del Rey to send his side into the semi-finals of the competition.

Fellow youngsters Raul Asencio, Jacobo Ramon and Lorenzo Aguardo are also called up by head coach Carlo Ancelotti.

Mbappe, Bellingham are back for Real Madrid against Atletico

However, Real Madrid are without the services of four players through injury, with Antonio Rudiger recently joining Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao on the sidelines, while David Alaba is out of action with a muscular problem.

"It's a very important match for both teams. The derby is always special, against a very tough opponent. It will be close, hard fought. Nothing new. They have enough quality to fight for the league," Ancelotti told reporters during his pre-match press conference.

"There were doubts about the line-up, Lucas and Camavinga, but they have been resolved today. They are available.

"I will put a starting eleven that can give us quality and commitment, those are the keys to success. Combine them. Maybe this year we had more quality than commitment. We are working to match that."

Real Madrid are currently top of the La Liga table, one point ahead of second-placed Atletico.

Real Madrid squad vs. Atletico Madrid:

Courtois, Lunin, Mestre; Vazquez, Vallejo, F Garcia, Mendy, Jacobo, Asencio, Lorenzo; Bellingham, Camavinga, Valverde, Modric, Tchouameni, Guler, Ceballos; Vinicius, Mbappe, Rodrygo, Endrick, Brahim, Gonzalo
