Álvaro Arbeloa spoke to the media ahead of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 second leg between Real Madrid and Manchester City.
During the press conference, the Madrid coach delivered a clear message to those who believe the team could be more competitive without Kylian Mbappé.
“It’s difficult to imagine that a team can be more competitive without the best player in the world,” Arbeloa said.
His comments highlight the confidence the club has in Mbappé ahead of the decisive clash, with the French star expected to be available for the match.
“He’s available now, and you’ll see tomorrow,” the coach added.
