A few hours before "El Clasico", Real Madrid has suffered a major blow, as Kylian Mbappe has not been included in the list of players gathered for the challenge against FC Barcelona.
The French striker had raised doubts about his performance in recent days, and the situation became even more worrying yesterday when he failed to complete training with the team. The physical problems he has recently shown seem to have led the Madrid technical and medical staff to decide not to risk him for the biggest match of the season.
Mbappe's absence is considered a huge loss for Real Madrid, as the Frenchman has been one of the team's most decisive players this season.
"El Clasico" takes place at a very important moment in the race for the La Liga title. Barcelona enters this duel with an advantage in the table and a draw would be enough to mathematically secure the championship title, while Real Madrid needs a victory to stay in the race.
Without Mbappe, the pressure on the Madrid team becomes even greater, in a match that is expected to determine the fate of the season.
