Mbappé, in doubt for Real Madrid’s debut at the Club World Cup
Palm Beach, USA – Real Madrid’s star forward, Kylian Mbappé, is doubtful for the team’s debut in the FIFA Club World Cup against Al Hilal due to a fever that prevented him from training this Tuesday.
Mbappé, who had participated in the first two training sessions led by Xabi Alonso in Palm Beach, did not feel fit to take the field this Tuesday morning.
Kylian was feeling a bit better this morning, but not well enough, so it was better for him not to go out and train. We are going to wait for him until the last moment, we will decide tomorrow morning.
– Xabi Alonso
The absence of Mbappé raises questions about his participation in the match against Al Hilal, where he was expected to form the starting offensive trident alongside Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo Goes.
The coach, Xabi Alonso, has stated that he will wait for Mbappé “until the last moment” to make a decision about his inclusion in the starting eleven.
In Tuesday’s training session, the rest of the Real Madrid squad, including Eduardo Camavinga, who is working to regain his best form, was present.
Dean Huijsen, Dani Ceballos and Brahim Díaz were also available to the media, making it clear that the club’s objective is to win the Club World Cup title.
