Official: Real Madrid squad list to face Atletico Madrid – Mbappe in | OneFootball

Real Madrid will lock horns with Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League Round of 16 tonight at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano.

Ahead of the big game, Los Blancos, who have a 2-1 lead from the first leg, have announced the squad list of players that will be making the short trip across town.

The big news is that Real Madrid megastar Kylian Mbappe has been included in the squad list after doubts about his fitness.

The French ace did not train with the group on Tuesday as he was dealing with some muscle overload. But having undergone tests earlier today, he has been deemed fit enough to be included in the squad, although it remains to be seen if he is able to start or not.

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti has called up a number of young players in the squad with the likes of Jacobo Ramon, Chema Andres, and Gonzalo Garcia all being included for the Atletico encounter.

Jude Bellingham, who missed the first leg through suspension, is available and called up. Thibaut Courtois and Antonio Rudiger are also back in the squad after being rested against Rayo Vallecano at the weekend.

Dani Carvajal, Dani Ceballos, Eder Militao, and Jesus Vallejo are unavailable due to injuries.
