Mbappé Misses Training as Arbeloa Starts New Era at Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappé was absent from training as Álvaro Arbeloa began his coaching tenure at Real Madrid, following Xabi Alonso's departure. Mbappé, recovering from a knee sprain, missed the session, while Arbeloa oversaw his first training ahead of the Copa del Rey match against Albacete.

The new coach also monitored players like Rodrygo and Antonio Rüdiger, with several academy players joining the session. Arbeloa's arrival marks a new chapter for Real Madrid as they prepare for upcoming matches, including the Champions League clash against Mbappé's former club, Monaco.
