Real Madrid Star Striker Suffers Thigh Injury Ahead of Atletico Derby
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappé has sustained a thigh injury just days before this weekend’s highly anticipated derby against Atletico Madrid, the club announced on Wednesday.

This news has raised concerns among fans and teammates alike, as Mbappé is one of the key players for Los Blancos.

Mbappé was taken off the field during the thrilling 3-2 victory over Alaves on Tuesday night. He appeared to be in discomfort, leading to immediate concerns about his fitness for the upcoming match.

According to reports, it is believed that he will be sidelined for approximately three weeks, which could significantly impact Real Madrid’s plans.

Following tests conducted by Real Madrid’s medical team, it was confirmed that Mbappé had suffered an injury to the biceps femoris muscle in his left leg. This specific injury is not uncommon in football, but its timing could not be worse for both the player and the club.

In his last match against Alaves, Mbappé not only contributed to the win with a superb goal but also showcased his growing form in La Liga, where he has scored five times in seven appearances this season.

When asked about Mbappé’s condition after the match, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti expressed cautious optimism. He stated, “He’s fine, just a bit overloaded. He asked to be substituted to avoid further problems.”

Ancelotti’s comments reflect a desire to manage the player’s health carefully, especially with such a crucial match on the horizon.

As of now, Real Madrid sits one point behind their rivals, Barcelona, in the La Liga standings. Barcelona is set to play against Getafe on Wednesday, making the derby even more important for Madrid as they aim to keep pace in the title race.

This weekend’s clash at the Metropolitano Stadium is always a highly charged affair, and the absence of Mbappé will be felt keenly by the team.

In addition to the derby, the injury means that Mbappé will also miss the upcoming Champions League match against Lille next week. He may not be available for the Nations League matches with France against Israel and Belgium later in October.

These potential absence highlight the impact of his injury on both club and country.
Mbappé joined Real Madrid this summer after completing his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, fulfilling a long-held dream. Initially, he took some time to find his footing in the Spanish capital, but he has recently hit his stride, demonstrating his incredible talent on the field.

In total, Mbappè has scored seven goals in nine appearances for Real Madrid across all competitions, including a vital goal in the UEFA Super Cup victory over Atalanta and in his Champions League debut.

As the team prepares for the derby, fans will be hoping for a swift recovery for their star player, knowing how crucial he is to their success this season.
