Real Madrid has captured fans' attention ahead of Matchday 6 of the UEFA Champions League with an important development. Star forward Kylian Mbappe did not participate in the final training session before their game against Manchester City. This unexpected situation within the Madrid squad has inevitably sparked numerous questions.
So far, the club’s officials have not provided a clear explanation for Mbappe’s absence from training. Reports also suggest that midfielder Eduardo Camavinga was missing from the team’s general preparations. The simultaneous absence of two key players has fueled speculation among fans about what decisions the Real Madrid coaching staff might make.
Situation before the big game
The match against City is scheduled to take place on the night of December 10 into December 11, starting at 1:00 AM Tashkent time at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. The game will be officiated by experienced French referee Clement Turpin.
It should also be noted that Real Madrid's head coach, Xabi Alonso, had expressed confidence in his team’s victory in this encounter just a few days ago, inspiring fans with his optimistic remarks.
The main question for fans: Will Mbappe play?
While today’s developments add an air of uncertainty around the Madrid team, the club often rests certain players during training sessions to manage their workload. However, everything will become clear once the official squad list is announced before the match.
There is no doubt that this clash at the Bernabeu will feature the characteristic Champions League atmosphere of high stakes, intense tempo, and fierce competition for victory. Both the Madrid and Manchester sides will aim to avoid mistakes as they take the pitch.
