There is no place for Brazilian teenage sensation Vinicius Junior in the Real Madrid starting XI for their Champions League trip to Viktoria Plzen.
It had been widely speculated that the 18-year-old would start in the Czech Republic after sparking Los Blancos’ 2-0 win over Real Valladolid after emerging off the bench at the weekend.
But interim Real boss Santiago Solari retains Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema up top, although Lucas Vazquez comes in for Marco Asensio.
Vinicius is on the bench, along with Luka Modric, Asensio and Isco.
