Real Madrid faces a major concern ahead of Wednesday’s showdown against Atlético Madrid, with Kylian Mbappé’s availability hanging in the balance.
The French forward picked up a knock during Real Madrid’s clash with Rayo Vallecano and is set to undergo medical tests to determine whether he can feature in the derby, as reported by Cope and other sources.
Mbappé was absent from the team’s collective training on Tuesday, opting instead for individual work at the club’s facilities. His condition will be closely monitored, with a final decision expected based on how he responds ahead of the high-stakes encounter.
A crucial figure in Madrid’s attack this season, Mbappé has made 11 appearances in the Champions League, netting seven goals and providing one assist. His presence in the derby would be a significant boost for Los Blancos, who are aiming to strengthen their position in the title race.
Madrid fans will be anxiously awaiting the results of his tests, hoping their star forward gets the green light for the pivotal clash.
