“<\/span>After tests carried out on our player Kylian Mbappe<\/a><\/strong> by specialist French doctors, under the supervision of Real Madrid’s Medical Services<\/strong>, the diagnosis of a sprain to the left knee and the suitability of the conservative treatment being followed is confirmed. Pending evolution,” read Real Madrid<\/a>‘s<\/strong> statement on Kylian Mbappe’s<\/strong> injury, which confirms MARCA’s<\/strong> exclusive.<\/p>\n “We are going to go day by day, right now it is better not to give deadlines,”<\/strong> Arbeloa confessed in the press room of Real Madrid City on the eve of the league match. Without deadlines. When the Frenchman is well… he will return to the pitch<\/strong>. There is no thought of forcing Mbappe in the slightest. The problems began on December 7 against Celta<\/strong> (0-2) and have not allowed him to play at 100% since then. “We want Mbappe to come back 100% and he will come back when that happens. We are very clear about what is wrong with him and what we want now, which is for him to recover 100%,”<\/strong> Arbeloa said. It will all depend on the player’s evolution and how he feels.<\/p>\n However, although the club has always spoken of discomfort, Mbappe’s situation has worsened to the point that his body has said enough<\/strong>. This situation has provoked anger in Mbappe and his entourage, who ended up looking for solutions in their own country, as MARCA<\/strong> reported on Thursday morning. Shortly afterwards, the club confirmed the striker’s trip to France to undergo further tests to accurately assess the evolution of his knee<\/strong>. The aim of this measure is to optimise his follow-up and prepare his return in the best possible conditions<\/strong>. At this moment, as the player’s entourage has revealed to MARCA, no surgical intervention is being considered<\/strong>. The player will continue with conservative treatment until his knee is fully operational and risk-free.<\/p>\n What is surprising is that this medical report is the first issued by the club on Mbappe’s physical condition since last Wednesday<\/strong>, when the number 10 withdrew from the match against Benfica due to the worsening of the discomfort in his knee that he has been suffering from and which has forced him to stop for the third time this season<\/strong>. A report that confirms that the assessment of the French doctors follows the same line as that made by Real Madrid’s medical staff.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nFirst medical report… and third break<\/h2>\n
