Mbappé returns to Madrid to complete knee injury tests

The French Football Federation has announced that Kylian Mbappé, captain of the French national team and star of Real Madrid, has left the 'Les Bleus' camp after sustaining an injury during the match against Turkey, which ended with a 1-0 victory for the French team on Friday evening in the UEFA Nations League.

Kylian Mbappé scored the only goal of the match in the 54th minute, but he suffered an injury while taking the shot that led to the Turkish national team's net being breached. He showed signs of pain immediately after scoring the goal, before attempting to continue the match but was unable to do so.

The French national team captain was forced to leave the pitch, with Désiré Doué coming on in his place, raising concerns about the nature of the injury sustained by the player.

Zinedine Zidane, the coach of the French national team, explained after the match that the initial signs were not reassuring, noting that Mbappé felt pain in his knee, and that the coaching staff would not take the risk of having him participate before confirming his health status.

The French national team's coaching staff has issued a clarification regarding Kylian Mbappé's injury, confirming that he sustained a knee injury during the shot from which he scored, and that examinations revealed an injury to his tendon.

As a result, Kylian Mbappé will leave the French national team's camp and return to Madrid to continue medical examinations and receive treatment, awaiting the determination of the severity of the injury and the time he may need to recover and return to the pitch.
