Kylian Mbappé remains a doubt ahead of Real Madrid’s Club World Cup opener against Al-Hilal. The French star is under observation after missing training, but Xabi Alonso offers a cautiously optimistic update.

After feeling unwell on Sunday night, Mbappé skipped Tuesday’s training session due to fever and fatigue. At the pre-match press conference, Xabi Alonso confirmed: “Kylian felt a bit better this morning, but it was safer not to train due to the heat.” His status remains uncertain, with the medical team monitoring him hour by hour.
