Faster return than expected. Initially announced as a forfeit for the Champions League match between LOSC and Real Madrid this Wednesday (9 pm), Kylian Mbappé is finally present in Carlo Ancelotti’s group, which was announced next Monday. So the striker will only miss the final match against Atletico Madrid (1-1) this Sunday in La Liga.

Released at the end of the match against Deportivo Alavés (3-2) on September 24, Kylian Mbappé suffered from an injury to the biceps femoris of his left leg. This thigh injury should have kept him off the field for around three weeks according to initial medical estimates. On the other hand, injured in the thigh, Thibaut Courtois is out of this game against LOSC.

A meeting between brothers

For the Mbappé family, this meeting of the Champions League will have a special flavor, with Real Madrid on one side and LOSC on the other, the club where Ethan Mbappé is playing this season. Kylian’s younger brother also left PSG this summer. At the start of the season, the midfielder had a total of 80 minutes of playing time with the Mastiffs.

This Thursday, Didier Deschamps has to announce his list for the October rally, with two planned matches in the Champions League, against Israel and Belgium. One certainty: Antoine Griezmann, who announced his international retirement last Monday, will not be present. Kylian Mbappé also paid tribute to the Blues’ vice-captain, hailing him as “an excellent player”.
