Alonso Uncertain About Length of Mbappe’s Absence

Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe has been diagnosed with a knee sprain that will keep him out for at least three weeks, missing the upcoming La Liga match against Real Betis. Coach Xabi Alonso is uncertain about the timeline for his return but hopes he can participate in the Spanish Super Cup against Atletico Madrid on January 8. As Madrid trails Barcelona by four points, Alonso is looking for alternatives, including a strong performance from Rodrygo Goes to compensate for Mbappe’s absence.
