Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa assessed the physical and psychological state of Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappé ahead of the crucial match against Atletico Madrid.
The match kicks off at 1:00 AM on the night of March 22nd to 23rd. Arbeloa emphasized that Mbappé's movements and activity on the field in recent matches have demonstrated his high form. "The minutes he spent in Manchester, his two or three runs, and every move showed that he was in excellent form. But for us, the main thing is his condition. If he feels good and is 100% ready to take the field, we will put him on the pitch," said Arbeloa.
In his opinion, the right decision now is to wait for Mbappé to be fully healthy and ready. This strategic approach allows the club to secure the best result in the derby.
Following the 28th round of the Spanish championship, Real Madrid sits in 2nd place in the league table with 66 points, while Atletico Madrid is in 4th place with 57 points. Arbeloa noted that this match is important not only for the points, but also for strengthening the team's confidence and maintaining the lead in the upcoming rounds.
Fans are closely monitoring Mbappé's condition and continue to hope for his participation in the derby.
