Xabi Alonso Makes Kylian Mbappé Claim Ahead of Real Madrid-PSG Semifinal Clash

With the two teams advancing to the semifinals, it sets up for a reunion between Kylian Mbappé and PSG. After Real Madrid’s win, manager Xabi Alonso spoke about whether he intends to start the Frenchman against his former club on Wednesday.

“I don’t know how I’m going to handle the situation,” Alonso said (h/t Mundo Deportivo). “I have no idea. Starting this Sunday, I’ll begin to think it all through… I’ve never faced PSG, but it’s clear they’re riding the momentum from how they finished the season. That’s going to be the challenge. So far, we’ve done well, we’ve competed, and now we’ll try to take the next step because we want to reach the final.”
