Real Madrid are sweating on the fitness of star striker Kylian Mbappe as the Spanish heavyweights prepare for a season-defining Champions League quarter-final against Manchester City.

Lamine Yamal is officially back to his best. After enduring a difficult period where the joy seemed to have vanished from his game, the teenage sensation exploded into life at the weekend, bagging a sensational hat-trick in Barcelona's 4-1 demolition of Villarreal.

Lamine Yamal has revealed he will gift his first ever match ball to his mother after the Barcelona superstar scored a hat-trick in a 4-1 victory over Villarreal.

At the very start of the year, it looked like Endrick's dream of making Brazil's World Cup squad was dead in the water.
