Xabi Alonso has yet to decide whether Kylian Mbappe will feature in Real Madrid's next Club World Cup match against Pachuca, as the French forward continues to recover from illness, the Spanish coach said on Wednesday.

In the lead-up to the match, Mbappé had been held out of training due to an illness and fever. Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso wanted to play it safe with the superstar (who had also recently played in the UEFA Nations League for France). Alonso did say that the club would wait to see how Mbappé felt on Wednesday and make a decision.
