According to , the initial assessment of Mbappe’s injury is not believed to be overly serious. Club doctors are cautiously optimistic that the problem will not prevent him from featuring in the cup final, which is scheduled to take place in Seville in nine days. The swelling around the ankle needs time to settle before further tests can provide a more complete understanding of the damage. Until those scans are completed, the club is refraining from making any definitive judgments about his availability.
Mbappe is already ruled out of this weekend’s home fixture against Athletic Club due to his red card against Alaves. Fortunately for Madrid, he has received only a one-match suspension, which means he would be eligible to return against Getafe, if deemed fit.
Real Madrid’s season is now approaching a critical juncture. With their European hopes dashed and La Liga slipping out of reach, the Copa del Rey final offers a chance for redemption, but much could hinge on whether Mbappe is fit and firing on April 26 against Barcelona.
