Real Madrid have announced the 19 man squad for the week 14 La Liga fixture against Athletic Bilbao. The Los Blancos travel to San Mames as they seek to catch up with table-toppers Barcelona.

Gareth Bale is out again, after coming on as a substitute in the match against Fuenlabrada on Wednesday.

On a positive note, captain Sergio Ramos is back in the matchday squad after fracturing his nose in the Madrid derby. He is expected to play with a nose mask.

Here's the Real Madrid squad:

Goalkeepers: Keylor Navas, Kiki Casilla and Moha.

Defenders: Nacho, Marcelo, Theo Hernandez, Varane, Dani Carvajal and Sergio Ramos.

Midfielders: Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Casemiro, Isco, Matteo Kovacic and Dani Ceballos.
