Kylian Mbappé missed the weekend's turbulent derby against Atlético Madrid, but the French superstar seems to have gotten a good rest.

He is included in Real Madrid's squad for Wednesday's Champions League match against Lille – where he will face his brother Ethan.

Mbappé injured himself in last week's Spanish league match against Alavés. Reports then said that he would probably not be back in playing condition until after the international break.

Anyway, Mbappé was present when Real Madrid's coach Carlo Ancelotti announced the squad traveling to Lille. However, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is missing, who injured his hip in Sunday evening's 1–1 derby against Atlético.

The reigning champion Real started this year's Champions League by beating Stuttgart at home on Santiago Bernabéu with 3–1. Then Kylian Mbappé scored his first goal in the tournament for his new club after the transfer from Paris SG.
