Real Madrid legend Raul will pull on the famous white shirt once more on August 22 in the Santiago Bernabeu Trophy, the club has confirmed.

The forward, who made more than 700 appearances for Los Blancos in a 16-year spell, will be visiting the Spanish capital with his current club Al-Sadd.

And Real said on the club website that Raul would play 45 minutes for each side on his return.

The statement said: “Al-Sadd will be the rival of Real Madrid in the next edition of the Santiago Bernabeu Trophy. The Qatari team will play against the Blancos on Thursday August 22 to contest the XXXV edition of the tournament (22:30 hours).

“Raul will return to the stadium where he played for 16 seasons. To commemorate this occasion, the former captain of Real Madrid will play 45 minutes with each team.”

The 36-year-old striker left Los Blancos in 2010 when he joined Bundesliga outfit Schalke. He moved to Al-Sadd last summer and helped them to their 13th league title.
