Real Madrid's big Kylian: Fear surrounding Kylian Mbappé

During the first gathering of the French team under the direction of Zinedine Zidane, Kylian Mbappé suffered a hyperextension of his left knee during France's victory in Turkey on Friday (0‑1) and had to declare himself unavailable for the next three matches, before immediately joining Real Madrid in Valdebebas for examinations.

Medical assessment and prognosis

Real Madrid's medical department released a statement indicating that the examinations carried out this Saturday revealed a hyperextension of the posterior capsule of the left knee. “His condition will be closely monitored,” the White House says. No details on the length of his unavailability have been disclosed.

The Madrid club did not specify the period of absence, but the Spanish press mentions a timeframe of about ten days. This estimate would place Mbappé's return before the league resumes.

According to this information, the number 10 could be available for the league match against Villarreal, scheduled for Saturday, October 10 at the Bernabéu. This date coincides with Real Madrid's first match of the season.

AS revelations indicate that the hyperextension could have been more serious if the player had continued to play, even risking surgery. Fortunately, the “kid from Bondy” chose not to push himself.

After his withdrawal, Zinedine Zidane immediately took over on the field. The coach thus replaced Mbappé for the remainder of the gathering.
