Brahim Díaz is experiencing a difficult spell at Real Madrid due to persistent muscle pain, which has limited his playing time. The Moroccan international's physical issues, first reported in September, continue despite his normal training regimen. Coach José Mourinho still considers him available. Since an assist against Inter Milan in the Champions League, Díaz has only played 22 minutes for Real Madrid against Elche on September 15. His playing time was also managed cautiously with the Moroccan national team, scoring against Lesotho but playing only 22 minutes against Mali. Despite these challenges, Díaz is determined to secure a more significant role under Mourinho, a task complicated by offensive competition from players like Endrick, Arda Güler, and Yan Diomande at the Madrid club.
