Mbappé's Stance on Participating in the King’s Cup Final

Real Madrid breathed a sigh of relief after confirming Kylian Mbappé's mild sprain in his right ankle, ensuring his temporary absence without any risk to his participation in the King’s Cup final against Barcelona, scheduled to take place at La Cartuja Stadium in 8 days.

The examinations that Mbappé underwent this morning confirmed that the injury is minor, and he will undergo a short period of rest and physiotherapy, with his condition being monitored day by day.

Mbappé will miss the match against Athletic Bilbao on Sunday due to suspension, and he may not participate in the match against Getafe next Wednesday as a precautionary measure, although his participation has not been entirely ruled out.

The club is confident in Mbappé's full readiness for the cup final, which is the team's primary objective, before facing the highly anticipated Clasico against Barcelona in two weeks in La Liga.

Despite going through his worst goal-scoring period since joining Real Madrid, having not scored in the last 5 matches, overcoming the ankle injury opens the door for him to make a strong return during the most crucial times of the season.
