Trains fully with team
Mbappe (hamstring) returned to team training Tuesday and could be an option for Thursday's clash against Real Oviedo, according to Madrid Xtra.
Analysis: Mbappe had been left out of the Clasico squad after his semitendinosus injury failed to heal in time following a setback during Saturday's session, making his return to the training pitch an encouraging development heading into the final fixtures of the season. The club will assess how he responds to the remaining sessions before making a final call on his involvement against Oviedo, with Real Madrid hoping to have their star striker available for the run-in after a frustrating spell managing the hamstring issue. If Mbappe can't make the squad or starts on the bench, Gonzalo Garcia will likely lead the front line for the Merengues again.
Unavailable for Clasico
Mbappe (hamstring) was not included in the squad for Sunday's Clasico against Barcelona after withdrawing from the final part of Saturday's training session, with the semitendinosus injury in his left leg failing to heal in time, according to the club.
Analysis: Mbappe's late withdrawal is a significant blow for Real Madrid after he had passed his fitness tests Thursday and appeared to be closing in on a return. The setback during Saturday's session ultimately proved decisive, forcing the coaching staff to leave him out of the squad for one of the most high-profile fixtures of the season. Vinicius Junior will lead the attack in his absence, with Brahim Diaz and Gonzalo Garcia among the other options available to coach Alvaro Arbeloa. The Merengues will now hope Mbappe can recover fully before the final fixtures of the campaign.
