The French newspaper 'L'Equipe' revealed the true reason behind the illness that Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe suffered during his time with the team at the FIFA Club World Cup held in the United States.

The French star suffered from severe inflammation of the stomach and intestines upon the team's arrival in the United States, which led to him being hospitalized, and he missed the first round of the tournament.

According to the report, Mbappe was poisoned due to bacteria in a chicken meal he had before the team's travel to the United States, which caused him to suffer from severe inflammation of the stomach and intestines, resulting in a loss of about 6 kilograms of his weight.

The French star returned to participate against Juventus in the Round of 16, as well as against Borussia Dortmund in the quarter-finals, but he did not play as a starter and only participated as a substitute in both matches.

It is worth mentioning that Real Madrid will face Paris Saint-Germain today in the semi-finals of the tournament, in a special match for the French star as he will play against his former club.
