After missing the semi-final against Atletico due to injury, Kylian Mbappé is pushing hard to feature in the Spanish Super Cup final.

A few weeks ago, Kylian Mbappé suffered a knee injury. The Frenchman did not travel to Saudi Arabia with the Real Madrid squad, as Los Merengues secured their place in the final by defeating Atlético (2-1). With a Clasico showdown on Sunday for the trophy, the Bondy-born star is expected to play.

Xabi Alonso announced in a press conference that the French international will travel for the final. Will it be to play or just to support his teammates? We'll find out on Sunday!
