Real Madrid to ‘push deadline’ for Mbappe to make Atletico Super Cup return

Despite having a knee injury, Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe will miss Sunday’s La Liga home game against Real Betis, but coach Xabi Alonso has indicated that the forward is working toward being ready for the Spanish Super Cup semifinal against Atletico Madrid.

The 27-year-old France captain has a sprained left knee, which equals Cristiano Ronaldo’s club record of 59 goals scored in a calendar year for Real in their 2-0 La Liga victory over Sevilla on December 20.

Initial expectations were made that a sideline injury would last at least three weeks.

On Saturday, Alonso told reporters, “We’ll definitely miss Kylian.” We must have faith in the players who will play tomorrow.

We’ll see as we go. We will do everything we can to get him back as soon as possible, but we must wait and see how things turn.

We’ll be making pushbacks to the deadlines; It is largely a matter of emotions. What time is possible? That is the inquiry. I’m not sure. The Super Bowl We sincerely hope. ”

Before a slump in their performance in November, Alonso’s men were five points clear at the top. Before being shocked by Celta Vigo at home in December, they drew three league games in a row, giving defending champions Barcelona a four-point lead over them in the title race.

Vinicius Jr., a forward, has a goalless run that Real’s decline in form has caused. The 25-year-old Brazilian winger, who scored 22 goals last season, hasn’t found the net since October and has only struck five times in all competitions this term.

Vini looks good, upbeat, and smiling when asked how Vinicius is doing after being booed by a fan base during their most recent game at the Bernabeu against Sevilla. We all had a good time recovering from the break.
