Summary of Rafa Benitez's press for the match against Spurs today.

Benítez: "My impressions up to now have been excellent".

"From the first moment I've seen the desire the players have to win things".

"For Real Madrid it's important to win the Audi Cup, just as it is to win every other competition, and we are going to try and do it".

"Cristiano and Benzema aren't here, they had some problems this morning and we prefer not to risk them because our players' health is the most important thing".

"Bale will play, he's a huge player for us. I won't talk about offers. He wants to play well, he's happy, we practised certain moves today.

"Cristiano is brilliant, he wants to win every game, he's a real professional. It's a pleasure working with him. It's a shame he's not here".

"I can't see any reason why Benzema would have to leave. I'm very happy with him".

MARCA: Real Madrid's new pitch is 8,500 square metres of turf delivered from Milan, divided into 23 strips that were laid over a period of 48hrs.

-Bernabeu has a revolutionary new hyrbid turf with an artificial base upon which grows natural grass - pioneering technology in Spain.

-The advantages of Bernabeu's hybrid pitch are that it takes much longer to wear out and drains a lot more easily than natural turf.

- Another great thing about Bernabeu's new turf is that it helps to avoid the player's injuring themselves from ground inconsistencies.

Marca | Pepe is not worried. He knows that his future lies at Real Madrid, where he is the third longest-serving player, behind Ramos and Marcelo. He wants to end his career at Real Madrid.
 

Former coach Rafa Guillén trained a teenage Rafa Benítez in Real Madrid's youth teams. In an interview with AS :

Q. Do you think Benítez will be successful with Madrid?

A. He's a hard worker and I think he won't be afraid of being strict with the players if he needs.

Q. What was Benítez like as a player?

A. He had a lot of class. He was a midfielder. He never realy ventured into attack to be honest.
 

Real Madrid coach Rafael Benitez says Cristiano Ronaldo's absence from his squad for the Audi Cup is due to a back problem rather than any fallout between the pair.

Ronaldo and strike partner Karim Benzema will not feature in the pre-season competition in Munich due to back and thigh injuries respectively.

The Portugal captain's absence follows reports of disagreements between Ronaldo and Benitez in training - something the latter has been quick to deny.

However, the former Napoli boss maintains Ronaldo is simply not being risked, with Real getting their La Liga campaign underway on August 23 at SPORTING Gijon.

"He's a great professional and someone who is very competitive, he wants to WIN every single small game or situation," Benitez said.

"I'm really pleased to WORK [with] him, [I'm] sorry because he's not here, but [there's] no problems between us. I said before, he's a very competitive player so I am pleased with that".

"He had a lower back problem so we decided to leave him there".
