Real Madrid Provide Injury Update on Kylian Mbappe

Following his absence from the French national team owing to an injury, Kylian Mbappe has started individual training at Real Madrid. Aiming for full fitness, the forward has been working on his recuperation.

After French manager Didier Deschamps had to refute allegations that Real Madrid swayed the choice to exclude Mbappe from the France team, questions were raised over his absence. Further fueling the debate was the 24-year-old’s appearance at a Swedish nightclub coincident with France’s game against Israel in the UEFA Euro qualifiers.
