Kylian Mbappe fitness doubt clouds El Clasico clash

Kylian Mbappe faces an uncertain wait to discover if he will be fit for Real Madrid’s crucial El Clasico encounter against Barcelona.

The French superstar has returned to training at the club’s facilities but remains doubtful for the potentially title-defining fixture.

Mbappe is still recovering from a muscle injury he sustained during Real Madrid’s match against Real Betis. Medical staff at the Spanish giants are carefully monitoring his condition as they assess whether he can participate in one of football’s most anticipated clashes.

A decisive fitness test is scheduled for Wednesday, which will determine Mbappe’s availability for the high-stakes encounter. The results of these assessments will provide clarity on whether the forward can feature in what could prove to be a pivotal moment in La Liga’s title race.

Real Madrid will be hoping their star attacker can recover in time to make an impact against their fiercest rivals in this season-defining fixture.

The former PSG forward has made 24 appearances, scored 24 goals, and assisted four in the La Liga this season.
