Mbappé and Bellingham in Real Madrid Squad for Second Leg Against Man City After Injuries
Both players recovered from injuries to boost Real Madrid's squad for the Champions League round-of-16 second leg after missing several matches including the first leg.
- On Monday, Real Madrid named Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham in a 26-man squad for the Champions League second leg on Tuesday.
- Mbappé hasn't played since Feb. 21 due to a left-knee problem and last featured in a 2-1 defeat at Osasuna, while Bellingham has been sidelined since Feb. 1 with a thigh injury and missed five matches.
- With the club hit by injuries, Madrid called on academy players during Saturday's 4-1 win over Elche, while left-back Álvaro Carreras also returned to the squad.
- Coach Álvaro Arbeloa will hold a pre-match news conference on Monday and may indicate if Mbappé and Bellingham are fit to start at Etihad Stadium, while ESPN reported Bellingham is not expected until April and England coach Thomas Tuchel doubts his chances this month.
- Given his scoring form, Mbappé's 3 Champions League goals this season could influence the round-of-16 tie.
