Injury Updates Ahead of Clásico Showdown
As the highly anticipated first Clásico of the season approaches, set for October 26, 2025, both Real Madrid and Barcelona are facing significant injury challenges with just ten days to go.
Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappé has reportedly sustained an ankle injury while on international duty with France, raising concerns over his availability for the match. Meanwhile, Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal withdrew from the Spanish national team during the international break for precautionary reasons.
Xabi Alonso, in his debut Clásico as Real Madrid’s head coach, will contend with at least two player absences. On the other side, Barcelona’s Hansi Flick is hopeful that four squad members will recover in time for the match at the Bernabéu, though he is already aware that five key players will not be available.
