According to Marca, Real Madrid will face Ferencvaros in Budapest for their second preseason friendly, with Vinicius making his debut following his contract extension until 2032, and Bernardo Silva also appearing for the first time since joining the club.

The most notable absentee is Jan-Diomande. The new signing is not included in the squad because the Ivory Coast defender only completed his medical examination yesterday and is still training individually while the team travels to Hungary.

Without him, all eyes are on Vinicius, who will make his first appearance in Budapest following his contract extension through 2032. Just days ago, uncertainty about his future ended with a declaration of eternal commitment to the Bernabéu, concluding a month-long saga. Now the Brazilian winger will command the left flank with a clearer mindset, knowing he will remain at the club.

Another important new face is Bernardo Silva, who will make his debut in Mourinho's midfield. This will be the Portuguese midfielder's first test as a Real Madrid player and an opportunity for supporters to see what he can deliver after a disappointing World Cup with Portugal. In a sense, this also marks the official beginning of the midfield rebuild envisioned by the Portuguese coach.

Brahim, Rüdiger, and Huijsen are also back in the squad. The Moroccan, like Vinicius and Bernardo Silva, returns to the team after the World Cup; Rüdiger needs more match rhythm after resuming training a few days ago, and Huijsen returns after a week out due to muscle discomfort. The defense, which has been hampered by summer injuries, gets some relief with their return.

There are no changes in goal, and up front, Espi and Endrick continue competing for the No. 9 position, both with strong cases to make. A group of academy players also continue traveling with the team, including Joan Martinez, Lamine, Mario Rivas, Sestri, Lacosta, Yáñez, and Alexis Ciria, the latter worthy of note after scoring on his debut against Fiorentina and rapidly rising through the youth ranks. In short, Budapest will continue to help this squad accelerate its integration and gradually become clearer.
