Kylian MbappĂ© is the main protagonist of Friday’s session at Valdebebas.

The French player has rejoined group training with the rest of his Real Madrid teammates on the eve of the league clash against Levante UD.

The return of the French star is a highly anticipated move by Madrid fans after a period of physical uncertainty. His last official appearance dates back to the Spanish Super Cup final against FC Barcelona, a match in which he was only able to play the final minutes coming off the bench.

It’s worth remembering that the “number 9” in white was unable to participate in the semifinal of that tournament due to physical discomfort that forced him to slow down his competitive rhythm.

Rodrygo and RĂŒdiger among the absentees

Despite the good news of Mbappé’s return, the Real Madrid infirmary remains a constant concern for the coaching staff.

During Friday’s session, significant absences were confirmed, such as Rodrygo Goes, Antonio Rudiger, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who are still undergoing individual recovery processes.

They are joined by Andrey Lunin, Eder Militao, and Ferland Mendy, leaving the team’s defensive line at a minimum to face the Granota side.

Álvaro Arbeloa will appear shortly at a press conference.
