Real Madrid confirm Kylian Mbappé return ahead of Manchester City clash
183 days agoKylian Mbappé has officially returned to the Real Madrid squad ahead of Tuesday night’s UEFA Champions League round-of-16 second leg against Manchester City.
The French international had missed the last five matches with a left knee sprain, but trained normally with the group on Sunday and has now been included in Carlo Ancelotti’s travelling squad for the trip to the Etihad Stadium.
It remains unclear whether Mbappé will feature on the pitch against the English champions. Real Madrid travel to Manchester with a comfortable 3–0 advantage from the first leg, meaning Ancelotti may opt to manage the forward’s minutes after his recent injury.
Mbappé has not played since 21 February, when he suffered the knee problem that forced him to sit out several fixtures across all competitions.
