Edu Aguirre Drops the Bomb before the Intercontinental Cup, Surprise in the Eleven

There are only a few hours left until Real Madrid faces Mexican Pachuca in the Intercontinental Cup final. There are still some doubts about what awaits both teams, especially in tactical and technical matters. One of the most striking is in the white club because there could be an unexpected change.

Kylian Mbappé's injury last week put his participation in the Intercontinental Cup final at serious risk. However, the Bondy attacker has done everything possible to shorten the time of his recovery and has even hired an osteopath. The aim was to improve his physical condition in record time.

He seems to have succeeded, as earlier this week there was talk that he could play some minutes in the final... but always coming off the bench, so as not to jeopardise his physical condition. Only two days have passed and the version now being handled is totally different.

The information revealed by Edu Aguirre confirms that Kylian Mbappé is already in Carlo Ancelotti's plans. According to the journalist from El Chiringuito de Jugones, the attacker would be first team player against Mexican Pachuca in the Intercontinental Cup final.

In ascending line

This radical change in Kylian Mbappé's eligibility with respect to the second final that Real Madrid will play this season is very striking. Because the '9' Merengue hasn't yet appeared on the 'big nights' since he put on the white jersey. The French striker himself knows that it is a 'must' that he has toward the team, his teammates and the Madrid fans.

This feeling is what has led the Parisian striker to work on his recovery, taking advantage of his absence against Rayo Vallecano last weekend. In addition to his will and desire to be available again, the hiring of the osteopath has been key in these efforts.

Because this professional is an old acquaintance of the Real Madrid player: they worked together during his time at AS Monaco. The clear improvement that Kylian Mbappé's injury seems to have registered is one more reason to trust in the change in the French player.

His performance hasn't met the expectations that almost everyone had since his arrival at the white club was announced. Although it is true that the Madrid '9' is scoring several goals and has given a few assists, his true potential has yet to appear full-time.
