Madrid's "Real" coaches and fans will need to arm themselves with patience while waiting for forward Kylian Mbappe's return to the field.

"Cadena SER" reports that the Frenchman, who is recovering from acute gastroenteritis, even had to be admitted to a hospital in the USA.

Although the player's health has improved and he has been discharged from the medical facility, it remains unclear when the athlete will be able to appear on the field.

It is predicted that K. Mbappe will not play in the last two group stage matches and will return to the lineup during the knockout stage if the Spaniards secure their place there.

It is speculated that coach Xabi Alonso will give Gonzalo Garcia another chance to prove himself, who scored a goal in the match against the "Al Hilal" club.
