Real Madrid are set to receive a quadruple injury boost ahead of their Champions League clash with Chelsea.
Zinedine Zidane's men booked their place in the semi-finals on Wednesday night after drawing 0-0 with Liverpool in their second leg, winning 3-1 on aggregate.
And they pulled off that win without four of their key stars with Sergio Ramos, Dani Carvajal, Raphael Varane and Eden Hazard all missing out through injury.
Chelsea now await the Spanish giants in the semi-finals having booked their spot with a 2-1 aggregate win over FC Porto, with the two teams set to face off at Valdebebas on April 27 and again at Stamford Bridge on May 5.
And ahead of those dates, it seems Real Madrid could get four of their key man back.
Former Blues star Hazard is set to return having already returned to training after six games out with his latest injury.
Zidane said recently: "There is no plan with Hazard. We are not going to force anything. It will be little by little. I don’t tell you when I see him.
"If it is in three days, better. If it is in 10 days, well then ok.”
But he will almost certainly be fit to face Chelsea, barring yet another injury setback.
And he won't be the only star to return with Dani Carvajal now nearing a return and with Raphael Varane set to return after suffering from coronavirus.
Captain Sergio Ramos could also be back from his muscular injury, and he too contracted coronavirus ahead of the second leg with Liverpool, a game he likely would not have been fit for anyway.
That's four key players Real Madrid will get back ahead of facing Chelsea, making them a very different prospect even from the side that defeated Liverpool over two legs and beat Barcelona in El Clasico.
