As Kicker reports, Kylian Mbappé suffered the next injury-related setback on Friday evening. According to the report, the 27-year-old Frenchman is dragging himself together with his club Real Madrid towards the end of the season. The exact severity of the injury is not yet known.
Mbappé had already been struggling with various ailments in recent weeks and had to take it easy repeatedly. The striker, who moved from Paris Saint-Germain to Real Madrid in the summer of 2024, had initially been dealing with a thigh injury. Now another injury has been added.
According to Kicker, it is a "blow" for the player and the club. Real Madrid is fighting for titles on several fronts this season. Mbappé is planned as one of the key players.
The Madrilenians are in the semifinals of the Champions League and are still in the race for the Spanish championship. How quickly Mbappé can get back on his feet is currently unclear. Kicker does not cite an official diagnosis from the club.
It remains to be seen whether the Frenchman can return in time for the decisive games of the season. Mbappé himself recently emphasized that he wants to give everything for the team. However, the series of injuries could affect his availability.
Real Madrid has a packed schedule in the coming weeks. The club's medical department is expected to provide a more precise assessment of the recovery time in the next few days. Until then, the situation surrounding the star striker remains tense.
