Diomande starts for Real Madrid for the first time

José Mourinho, the head coach of Real Madrid, has revealed the official lineup for his team ahead of their match against Rayo Vallecano this evening, as part of the fifth round of LaLiga.

Real Madrid's starting lineup saw the young Ivorian star Yan Diomande make his first appearance since joining the royal team during the current summer transfer window.

Yan Diomande is gradually getting the chance to participate since joining Real Madrid, having played only 23% of the team's total minutes in LaLiga so far, amounting to 83 minutes out of a possible 360 minutes.

Yan Diomande has not started any match for Real Madrid this season, as Mourinho has relied on a gradual approach with the young player, before deciding to give him a chance to appear in the starting lineup against Rayo Vallecano.

The Ivorian player hopes to seize this opportunity and deliver a strong performance against Rayo, in order to prove his abilities and secure a starting place in Mourinho's plans for upcoming matches.

Real Madrid's lineup today against Rayo Vallecano:

Thibaut Courtois

Carreras - Rüdiger - Konaté - Dumfries

Silva - Valverde

Bellingham.

Vinicius - Mbappé - Diomande
