Real Madrid's star forward Kylian Mbappé is poised for a potential return to the pitch this Sunday against Getafe, signaling a positive conclusion to his recent injury concerns. This follows a period of uncertainty after the French international sustained an ankle knock during the match against Villarreal.

Despite the initial discomfort, Mbappé subsequently joined the French national team, featuring in a game against Azerbaijan where he found the net before being substituted due to a recurrence of the same issue. This setback led to his withdrawal from the following fixture against Iceland and a return to Madrid for a focused recovery.

After training normally with the squad, all signs now point to his availability for the upcoming derby. However, manager Xabi Alonso faces a tactical decision, weighing the immediate need for his star player against a demanding schedule that features crucial clashes with Juventus, Barcelona, and Liverpool in the near future.
