Mbappe is threatened with missing the Madrid derby
Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe was injured during Tuesday's match against Deportivo Alaves, raising doubts about his participation in the derby against Atletico Madrid next Sunday. Mbappe scored Real Madrid's second goal against Deportivo Alaves in a match that the royal club won 3-2, but he was forced to leave the field ten minutes before the end of regular time due to injury. Spanish newspaper AS reported that the reason for Mbappe leaving the Santiago Bernabeu stadium during the match against Deportivo Alaves was due to discomfort in his left thigh. Coach Carlo Ancelotti commented on the substitution of his French star, saying: "He was a little tired and asked me to change him to avoid problems." The newspaper said that Mbappe did not get a rest throughout the season, except for the first half of France's second match during the last international break against Belgium in the European Nations League, where he participated in all nine matches as a starter. Real Madrid believe that their French star will be ready for the derby match on Sunday. Today, Wednesday, he will not train, like the entire team, because it is a rest day, but he will undergo tests to remove doubts about his ability to face Atletico Madrid in the eighth round of the Spanish League.
