"Mbappe now has just two key training sessions - scheduled for Monday and Tuesday - to demonstrate that his knee can withstand the intensity of a high-stakes meeting with Guardiola's side. The player's personal desire to feature in the game has never been in doubt, but the technical staff must decide if the risk of a setback outweighs the reward of starting their primary goal threat."
"The World Cup winner has not been alone during his time in France, having been accompanied by two of Real Madrid's expert physiotherapists to ensure his recovery remained on track. While the club have remained cautious regarding a definitive timeline, the door has been left open for a potential European appearance."
Kylian Mbappe is undergoing recovery from a left knee injury sustained before Real Madrid's Champions League round of 16 first-leg match against Manchester City on Wednesday. The French forward spent several days in France receiving specialist treatment while accompanied by two Real Madrid physiotherapists to monitor his progress. He returns to Madrid on Sunday with two training sessions scheduled for Monday and Tuesday to demonstrate his fitness. The medical staff must assess whether his knee can withstand the intensity of the high-stakes encounter. While previously considered unlikely, his participation is now viewed as a possibility that could significantly strengthen Real Madrid's attack against Pep Guardiola's side.
