Real Madrid will have to get past Leganes in the Copa del Rey quarterfinals without Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham.

Real Madrid have filed a formal complaint to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) asking for the “immediate submission of VAR audio” related to two decisions in their 1-0 defeat by Espanyol. The complaint follows referee Alejandro Muniz Ruiz’s decision to show Espanyol defender Carlos Romero a yellow card for a 60th-minute challenge on Kylian Mbappe as well as a disallowed goal by Vinicius Junior in the 21st minute after a foul by the France forward.

Kylian Mbappe's Real Madrid career has already had its fair share of ups and downs, and one of the club's greatest ever players has chimed in on what should be done to ensure things get better from here on out. The Frenchman had a rough first few months at the Bernabeu, but his form has since picked up with five goals in three January Liga games.

Carlo Ancelotti confirmed Kylian Mbappé has joined the long list of Real Madrid players sidelined due to injury.

Carlo Ancelotti said Kylian Mbappe would miss Real Madrid's upcoming Copa del Rey quarter-final against Leganes with a bruised calf and backed his club's complaints about Spanish refereeing on Tuesday.
