Kylian Mbappé is already in Jeddah, where he arrived on Friday night on a private jet, to join Real Madrid’s concentration in the lead-up to the Spanish Super Cup final against Barcelona.
From now on, according to the newspaper Markevery minute counts for the French star in his race against time for the The Classic which is worth a trophy, scheduled for Sunday (7pm):
The striker, remember, traveled to Saudi Arabia after being left out of the squad for the clash with Atlético Madrid. A knee sprain left the team’s top scorer blancos on land, but there is still hope of a recovery in time for the clash with the rival.
At this point, says the Spanish publication, all scenarios are on the table. Mbappé could enter during the match, even be a starter or… not even be on Xabi Alonso’s final list. Everything will depend on the attacker’s evolution in the next few hours.
Thus, it seems that the Frenchman will be ready to face Benfica on January 28th, in a duel in Luz for the 8th and final round of the UEFA Champions League league phase.
