Real Madrid's Injury List Grows Ahead of City Clash

Real Madrid is facing a significant number of absences ahead of the first leg of their Champions League tie against Manchester City. Mbappe, who returned from France, has not shown improvement in his injury and is missing from training. Carreras is also ruled out, with Bellingham, Alaba, Sebajos, Militao, Rodrigo, and Alvaro also on the injury list. There is hope for Carreras' return in the second leg in Manchester, but the situation of the other players remains uncertain. These absences create a significant problem for the Real Madrid coach, as the team is called upon to face a strong opponent like Manchester City.
