Ronaldo ‘doubt’ for Eibar clash

Cristiano Ronaldo is a major doubt for Real Madrid’s trip to Eibar on Saturday after his two late goals rescued a point against Las Palmas.

The 32-year-old trained separately from his teammates on Friday with AS reporting he looks set to miss his side’s trip to the Basque country.

It would come as a further blow to Zinedine Zidane who already has to negotiate a tricky trip to the high-flying Eibar without suspended duo Gareth Bale and Alvaro Morata, while the Portugese star has netted four goals in his last three outings for Los Blancos.

Bale was dismissed during the draw with Los Amarillos for shoving Jonathan Viera while Morata picked up his fifth yellow card of the campaign in the same match.

Madrid are also set to be without French defender Raphael Varane who has been unavailable for the last two games having sustained an injury during last month’s defeat to Valencia.
