Less than a week after his injury exit against Atalanta, Kylian Mbappé is already back in the Real Madrid squad for the Intercontinental Cup final against Pachuca.
The news is good for Kylian Mbappé. Left injured last Tuesday on the pitch of Atalanta Bergamo in the Champions League, the French striker is already back in the Real Madrid group. Absent this weekend for the match on the field of Rayo Vallecano (3-3), the Bondynois is one of the players called up by Carlo Ancelotti for the final of the Intercontinental Cup.
This was more or less the timing announced or hoped for for Mbappé, who was suffering from a thigh injury. However, it is not certain that the former PSG player will be fully recovered to face the Mexicans of Pachuca on Wednesday, but the trend is rather good. Marca indicates that Mbappé completed part of collective training this Monday morning.
Mbappé in an extended group
For this trip to Doha, Carlo Ancelotti chose to expand his squad by calling up several elements from Castilla, such as strikers Gonzalo and Victor Munoz. The only absentees are the injured Ferland Mendy, David Alaba, Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao.
