Three players facing physical doubts make it to Carlo Ancelotti’s squad for the cup final against Barcelona | OneFootball

FC Barcelona and Real Madrid are all set to face one another in a highly exciting encounter tomorrow on Saturday, in a fixture no smaller than the Copa del Rey final.

Winning the cup is a major objective for both teams, who are also competing for the La Liga title in this final stretch of the season, and there is no doubt that both of them will try their level best to come out as the winners tomorrow.

The Blaugranes have already announced their squad for the game, with Marc Andre Ter Stegen being the most notable addition. Meanwhile, injured players like Robert Lewandowski, Alejandro Balde, Marc Casado, and Marc Bernal are also expected to travel to Seville to support the team tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Mundo Deportivo reports that the situation is quite similar for Real Madrid, as Carlo Ancelotti has announced quite a strong squad for this game, and has named three players who were previously doubtful for this game.

These three players include David Alaba, Ferland Mendy, and Kylian Mbappe. The Austrian defender had suffered a physical problem in the last game against Getafe and was thus doubtful for the final. Similarly, Mbappe had suffered a sprain in the UCL game against Arsenal and had been unable to play in the last two league games for the Merengues.

The third player, Mendy, has not played since March 12th, and this is the first time he returns to the squad in this month and a half. Carlo Ancelotti might also decide to start him to keep Lamine Yamal in check, especially as Camavinga is unavailable due to injury.

The versatile French midfielder was injured in the last game against Getafe, and is now set to miss only the cup final but the rest of the season as well. However, he, along with Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao, will still travel to Seville tomorrow to support their team against Barcelona.
