According to the latest report from journalist Antón Meana, Kylian Mbappé’s injury is serious. Real Madrid believe Mbappé could return for the second leg against Manchester City, but Mbappé’s camp does not agree.
The reporter stated: “Mbappé’s anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee is at its limit — what we describe as a sprain, according to medical reports, but the situation is far more complex. With fewer than 100 days until the World Cup, Mbappé cannot afford any delays.”
“Real Madrid believe Mbappé has a chance to be available for the away second leg against Manchester City, but Mbappé’s camp disagrees with this timeline. People close to the player say Mbappé needs sufficient time to recover.”
