Mbappé out for a fortnight | OneFootball

The French forward suffered a knee injury in the Nations League match against Turkey

Kylian Mbappé, a Real Madrid player, is suffering from a "hyperextension of the posterior capsule of the left knee. Pending further assessment." This was announced by the Madrid club after the corresponding medical tests were carried out this afternoon at the Ciudad Deportiva de Valdebebas.

The Frenchman was injured in the second half of the Nations League match against Turkey. Specifically, in the 54th minute, when the French star scored the first and only goal of the match. After the goal, he left the pitch to receive treatment and, despite feeling discomfort, returned to the field to continue playing. Five minutes later, he asked to be substituted, aware that he could not continue.

This situation set off alarm bells in Chamartín. The French star already had several problems with that left knee last season, which left him struggling from December to May. Fortunately for Los Blancos, the estimated recovery time is 10 to 12 days, so the French player will be available for the first match after the break, which will be against Villarreal next October 10.
