MADRID: Real Madrid’s second “galactico” era got underway on Friday as Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema led football’s most expensive squad through its first pre-season practice. New coach Manuel Pellegrini spoke to the team briefly ahead of a training session that included most of Madrid’s 29 players except Brazil playmaker Kaka, defenders Sergio Ramos and Raul Albiol, goalkeeper Iker Casillas and midfielder Daniel Parejo. They will join the team on July 27. Striker Ruud van Nistelrooy and midfielder Mahamadou Diarra trained for the first time after missing most of last season through knee injuries. In all, five new players trained at Valdebebas after Madrid exercised its option to buy striker Alvaro Negredo back from Almeria and ended Ezequiel Garay’s loan spell with Racing Santander. Meanwhile, the club is still chasing Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso, Pardeza said on Friday.
