Kylian Mbappé, the diagnosis is in!

We had to wait 48 hours to find out a little more about the state of health of Kylian Mbappé. Replaced in the first period by Rodrygo (36e), after opening the score against Atalanta Bergamo (0-3), Tuesday evening in the Champions League, the French striker underwent additional medical examinations on which Real Madrid officially communicated.

“After the examinations carried out today (Thursday) on our player Kylian Mbappé by the Real Madrid medical staff, he was diagnosed with an injury to the thigh of the left leg. Evolution pending »indicates the Spanish club. A verdict which confirms the impression left by the Madrid number 9, visibly injured in the hamstrings as he left the field.

Kylian Mbappé absent in the Intercontinental Cup final?

How long will the captain of the Blues be absent? The White House does not specify it but according to Cope, this new physical problem should keep him away from the field for around ten days. This will deprive him of the Liga match against Rayo Vallecano, Saturday evening (9 p.m.), and perhaps of the Intercontinental Cup final against Pachucha or Al-Ahly, on December 18 in Qatar.

At the end of September, the former PSG star had already been injured in the same thigh, this time in the biceps femoris, but his unavailability, first announced for three weeks, had been reduced to just five days. This injury is in any case an additional tile for Carlo Ancelotti and the Merengues, whose infirmary has been full for several weeks.
