Real Madrid XI vs Pachuca: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup, injury latest for Intercontinental Cup final | OneFootball

Los Blancos are seeking to add another trophy to their collection

Real Madrid have included Kylian Mbappe in the squad for Wednesday's Intercontinental Cup final against Pachuca.

The France superstar emerged as a doubt for the game after suffering a thigh injury during the Champions League win over Atalanta last week, causing him to miss Saturday La Liga draw away at Rayo Vallecano as a result.

However, Mbappe has been named in the 24-man travelling party for the final after taking part in the team's training session on Monday and may earn an immediate recall to the starting lineup.

In addition, there’s a decision to make in central midfield as Eduardo Camavinga, who made his return to action at the weekend too, could replace captain Luka Modric to partner Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham in the engine room.

This means Lucas Vazquez could continue at right-back with Aurelien Tchouameni operating as a makeshift central defender alongside Antonio Rudiger.

Predicted Real Madrid XI: Courtois; Vazquez, Tchouameni, Rudiger, Garcia; Valverde, Camavinga, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappe, Vinicius JR

Injured: Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Mendy
