Bad news for Real Madrid. The Merengue team has issued a medical statement through its various social platforms confirming the injury of one of their key players in the offensive line: Kylian Mbappé.
The French star playing for the white team, as stated by the club, following the respective tests conducted by the Medical Services of the Chamartín team on Wednesday morning, it has been confirmed that he is suffering from an injury in the left hamstring. A physical setback for which the Madrid team has not determined a recovery time, concluding their statement with an uncertain "pending evolution."
Mbappé had already raised concerns for Real Madrid, as in the match he played against Real Madrid against Deportivo Alavés (3-2), 'Donatello', who scored a fantastic goal against 'babazorros' (his seventh of the season), had to leave the match in the 80th minute. At that moment, it was thought that the forward had been substituted due to rest, but later Carlo Ancelotti mentioned in the post-match press conference that Kylian "was feeling a bit overloaded and asked for the change to avoid problems."
Which matches will Kylian Mbappé miss with Real Madrid?
However, Real Madrid has revealed the actual extent of this injury, which, according to estimates, could leave Kylian Mbappé out of action for approximately three weeks. This means that the Merengue 'number 9' would miss a crucial match like the derby against Atlético de Madrid on the upcoming Sunday, September 29.
Additionally, he would also be absent in the matches against LOSC Lille (02/10) and Villarreal CF (05/10), with his return for the match against Celta de Vigo on October 19 still in doubt. This would represent a 'forced break' for Mbappé, who has maintained a high pace of play since joining the team in the Spanish capital, having played in nine matches, scoring seven goals, and providing an assist.
