Don't Miss a Kick: Your Complete Guide to Watching Real Madrid vs. Leganes Live

Real Madrid's low-key preseason gets underway with a closed-doors friendly against Leganés this Tuesday.

José Mourinho is far from having a complete squad at his disposal due to the World Cup, yet a host of high-profile players are eager to impress the new boss this summer.

The "special one" returns for a second chapter in Madrid, following a gradual downturn in his managerial fortunes over the last ten years. Florentino Pérez has handed a trusted ally another opportunity for silverware, after Mourinho played a key role in dismantling Pep Guardiola's dominant Barcelona side during his first tenure.

Los Blancos have settled for a distant second behind Hansi Flick's Barça in consecutive seasons, while also falling short of the Champions League semifinals. Whether Mourinho can guide Madrid back to the summit remains to be seen, but there's little question his second stint will be must-watch entertainment.

Here's everything you need to know to follow Madrid's training-ground fixture against second-division opposition.
