Real Madrid's Alvaro Arbeloa: Kylian Mbappe to travel to Champions League tie vs. Man City
""[Mbappé] is getting better every day. His development is progressing as it should. We made a plan. It depends on his progress, but I think he's doing very well. He won't be available tomorrow, but I expect he'll travel to Manchester.""
"Mbappé is Madrid's top scorer with 38 goals in all competitions this season, but the knee problem has seen him miss some important games, including when Madrid played City in the league phase, most of the Spanish Supercopa, and the second leg of their Champions League playoff with Benfica."
""I want him to be able to travel to Manchester. Let's see tomorrow and on Sunday, when we'll make a final decision. Let's hope he's there, and that he's there against Atlético Madrid [on March 22]. As for France, we'll see when the time comes.""
Kylian Mbappé is recovering from a left knee sprain sustained in December and missed Real Madrid's 3-0 home victory over Manchester City in the Champions League round-of-16 first leg. Coach Álvaro Arbeloa confirmed that Mbappé's recovery is progressing well and expects him to be available for the crucial second-leg match at Manchester City next week, though he will not play in Madrid's upcoming LaLiga fixture against Elche. Mbappé, Madrid's top scorer with 38 goals this season, has missed several important matches due to the injury. Arbeloa indicated that final decisions regarding Mbappé's availability will be made after observing his progress over the weekend.
