Kylian Mbappé's participation in Real Madrid's Club World Cup quarter-final match is uncertain due to his recovery from gastroenteritis. Coach Xabi Alonso noted Mbappé's improvement in health and stated that decisions about the starting lineup will be made the following morning. He made his debut against Juventus after missing the group stage. Gonzalo García has stepped up in Mbappé's absence, scoring crucial goals. Real Madrid is set to face Borussia Dortmund, who have shown solid form, making the match anticipated to be closely contested.
"He's getting better. He's been improving over the last three days. Tomorrow morning we will be deciding if he will be part of the initial 11."
"Mbappé came off the bench as a substitute in the second half of the Spanish side's 1-0 win over Juventus in Miami on Tuesday, earning wild applause in a scene that underscored his global appeal at the U.S.-hosted tournament."
"I think (Garcia and Mbappé) could complement each other and if it's something that is required, it's not something I'm going to turn a blind eye to."
"Dortmund is a very good team. As soon as (coach Niko Kovac) was at the helm, they were growing and developing and on the rise."
