Kylian Mbappé is still not training with his Real Madrid teammates, a report has revealed, but he will soon ramp up his involvement with a view to featuring against Getafe on Sunday.
Mbappé was released from the France squad after aggravating an ankle injury picked up shortly before the international break, with the club ordering scans which soon proved the issue he was facing was not a particularly serious one.
The only reason for nerves over the past few days has been the presence of El Clásico on the calendar for Oct. 26. Fans have been eagerly awaiting news of Mbappé’s potential involvement against Barcelona, and according to , there is confidence he will be more than ready for the showpiece fixture.
While he has not trained with his teammates in a bid to protect his ankle, his omission has been purely precautionary and medical staff are drawing up plans to ramp up Mbappé’s involvement ahead of Sunday’s Getafe match.
Madrid expect Mbappé to be ready to face Getafe, which should mean he will be fit for next week’s Champions League clash with Juventus and then the visit from Barcelona on Oct. 26.
Franco Mastantuono, also injured during the international break with Argentina, is expected to follow a similar path to Mbappé and his involvement against Getafe is already assumed.
