The injury crisis in European football continues, as yet another star player has been ruled out. Real Madrid has officially announced that Kylian Mbappé has sustained a thigh muscle injury and is expected to be sidelined for three weeks.
As a result, Mbappé will miss Carlo Ancelotti’s side in the upcoming derby against Atlético Madrid this Sunday. He will also be unavailable for the Champions League group stage match against Lille and the La Liga fixture against Villarreal on Matchday 9.
Furthermore, Mbappé will not be joining the French national team for their upcoming UEFA Nations League matches.
The 25-year-old forward is anticipated to make his return for Real Madrid’s match against Celta Vigo on October 19.
Just yesterday, Kylian Mbappé scored in the game against Alavés, becoming the fifth player in Real Madrid’s history to score five or more goals in his first seven La Liga matches.
