Real Madrid is set to play Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League Round of 16, and manager Alvaro Arbeloa is again bringing young talent into the team.
In the first leg, Thiago Pitarch and Miguel Angel made significant contributions, while over the weekend, Dani Yanez stood out with an assist in a notable La Liga victory against Elche.
According to a report from MARCA, 18-year-old center back Mario Rivas is expected to make his first team debut under Arbeloa for the match against Manchester City. Arbeloa has included Rivas in the squad as young center back Rau Asencio remains sidelined due to injury.
