Real Madrid are gearing up for their Club World Cup debut with a clash against Saudi side Al Hilal. The club has announced its squad for the match, and there’s no shortage of surprises.
Details: It has been confirmed that French striker Kylian Mbappé will not feature in the team’s opening match of the tournament—he’s not just missing from the starting eleven, but has been left out of the matchday squad entirely. According to Madrid Xtra, the Frenchman is sidelined with the flu.
The showdown with Al Hilal is set to kick off at 21:00 Central European Time. Salzburg and Pachuca join Los Blancos in the group stage action.
Reminder: Real Madrid winger Rodrygo has been linked with a move to London’s Arsenal for some time now, and renowned insider Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the developing situation.
