As expected, Kylian Mbappé will be low in the second match of the Real Madrid Club World Cupin which whites will face Pachuca. The French suffered a few days ago an acute gastroenteritis for which he even had to be hospitalized.
Despite receiving hospital discharge, the reality is that the white team striker still is not in a position to play And the club's medical body does not want to risk the least. Mbappé will not even travel to Charlotte to accompany his people before the Mexican team and stay in Palm Beach, Florida, to continue his recovery process.
Mbappé did not exercise with the rest of the teammates in the last training before the match against Pachuca. Instead, he stayed working at the hotel facilities del Real Madrid en Palm Beach.
So far, Xabi Alonso has not been able to count on the Madrid star in any game and has barely seen him in training. From the arrival of the team to the United States, Mbappé has only participated in two training sessions. Specifically, the first two that the team made on Sunday and Monday.
Then the striker was affected by a febrile process which prevented him from being available for the first game of the tournament, in which Madrid could not pass from the tie against Al-Hilal. Subsequently, he had to be hospitalized for acute gastroenteritis mentioned above, although he was discharged a few hours later, once the treatment took effect.
Another who has not been able to train with his teammates has been Dani Carvajal. The right side is trying to get in tune after its serious knee injury, but some Neck discomfort They have prevented it from exercising this Saturday.
Real Madrid will travel to Charlotte this afternoon, once the training is over. From there, Xabi Alonso will be the protagonist in the pre -game press conference, scheduled for 00:30 Spanish time. The white team cannot afford to fail against Pachuca and needs victory in a imperative way after the disappointing first game.
