Ancelotti hopes for an Mbappé comeback in the cup final against Barcelona.
Real Madrid’s star striker Kylian Mbappé is expected to be available to his team in the final of the Copa del Rey against FC Barcelona on Saturday. As coach Carlo Ancelotti announced on Tuesday, the French international is on the way to improvement and “will probably be ready for the game on Saturday”.
Mbappé had injured the ankle against FC Arsenal in the semi -finals of the Champions League last week and already missed the league game against Athletic Bilbao at the weekend. For the coming game, against Getafe on Wednesday, he will still be canceled. “He suffers because he can’t help – but he does everything to be fit on Saturday,” said Ancelotti. When playing against Bilbao, the 25-year-old was seen on the video screens in the Estadio Bernabeu-some fans acknowledged this with whistles.
