Real Madrid manager Álvaro Arbeloa could not specify a recovery timeline for superstar forward Kylian Mbappé, only revealing that the Frenchman will be out for as long as it takes his “discomfort to disappear.”
Mbappé was an unexpected absence for Los Blancos in their 2–1 victory over Benfica in the second leg of the Champions League knockout phase playoffs. The 27-year-old could not complete training on the even of the clash and was subsequently ruled out of Wednesday’s fixture due to a nagging knee issue.
