French star Kylian Mbappe will miss the Spanish Super Cup after Real Madrid opted for conservative treatment to fully prepare the player, focusing on complete rest to avoid any risks.

Mbappe will not participate in the competition held in Saudi Arabia due to a knee injury. His participation in the semi-final, and indeed the entire Super Cup, has been deemed impossible, according to Spanish newspaper "AS".

The club prefers conservative treatment to ensure the player's full readiness upon his return, without any decline in performance, which has been observed recently. To avoid any risks, it was decided to exclude Mbappe, although the club still holds a slim hope regarding his participation in the final. However, Real Madrid will travel to Jeddah without Mbappe in the squad.

The club currently prefers to deal with the situation step-by-step, without setting a specific return date. Therefore, Mbappe remains at "Valdebebas" to continue training at a consistent pace but without rushing, as haste has sometimes led to undesirable outcomes. This injury marks the twenty-third of Mbappe's career.
