Karim Benzema, not training with the group at Real Madrid
The French striker has a minor neck problem and is a doubt to face Ajax in the Champions League
French striker Karim Benzema is working on the side away from the main group at Real Madrid ahead of the trip to face Ajax in the Champions League on Wednesday.
The forward, subbed off after 89 mins at the Wanda in the 3-1 derby victory on Saturday did not link up with his team-mates because of a reported minor neck injury.
Madrid are in fine form and have moved within six points of Barcelona in La Liga, and will hope to take that wind to Amsterdam with them where they face Ajax.
