Eduardo Camavinga is 99% likely to miss the Copa del Rey final due to a left hamstring tear, while David Alaba is also doubtful due to left leg pain. Ferland Mendy, who recently returned from injury, is far from optimal match fitness. As a result, Carlo Ancelotti may have to rely on Fran Garcia, a player not fully trusted by the coaching staff for big matches.

Alaba was the first to face issues, experiencing left leg pain during the match against Getafe. While his injury does not appear severe, his participation in the final remains uncertain. Camavinga’s injury worsened the situation, as he suffered a muscle tear in the same match. Both players will undergo further tests, including MRI scans, to determine the extent of their injuries.

This situation pushes Real Madrid toward using Fran Garcia, a player the coaching staff does not consider ideal for high-pressure matches. However, unless Mendy recovers unexpectedly, Garcia may be the only option left to mark Barcelona’s rising star Lamine Yamal in the final.
