There will be no Kylian Mbappé to help the France team win its two Nations League matches scheduled for October 10 and 14, against Israel and Belgium respectively. Victim of a supposed biceps femoral injury during the match between his team Real Madrid and Alaves on September 24 (3-2), the Bondynois was left to rest by Didier Deschamps. However, the striker’s injury seemed much less serious than expected since he first came on against Lille in the Champions League, before being lined up a few days later against Villarreal. And the Spanish media are now saying that he is training like never before.
It is Relevo who explained that Kylian Mbappé would not be satisfied with his level of play since he was at Real Madrid, a reason which would partly explain his absence with the France team. Witness to the Frenchman’s training in recent days, the Spanish media confirmed that he had not skimped on efforts, particularly during exercises in small areas. With several important deadlines to come after the international break, Real Madrid hopes to be able to count on Kylian Mbappé finally in top form.
Everything for Real
THE Merengue will indeed have an intense fortnight to live, with two Champions League matches against Borussia Dortmund (October 22) and AC Milan (November 5), but also three La Liga matches including the famous “Clasico” scheduled for October 26 against at FC Barcelona, or a trip to Valencia (November 2). Carlo Ancelotti will therefore need a squad in good shape, and therefore a Kylian Mbappé capable of stringing together meetings while being efficient. The latter has therefore chosen to remain at the complete disposal of Real. This is also what was confirmed Marca in his columns, explaining that “Mbappé wanted to stay in Madrid and not join the selection in order to perfect his physical condition, because he believes he is not yet up to expectations”.
Although we must always be careful with information, particularly from pro-Real media, the absence of Kylian Mbappé with the France team is still causing discussion. And even if many former executives of the Blues have already been in the same situation as him in the past and have chosen to skip this or that gathering, the attacker remains in the sights of certain criticism. In any case, he does his best to silence those who might come from Madrid.
