Kylian Mbappe latest injury update today, status and return date ahead of Champions League clash against Bayern Munich
PSG is without a doubt the strongest footballing team in France, and they have made it a practice to consistently claim the Ligue 1 championship. In contrast, PSG has a history of losing to larger European clubs in Europe. They have yet to have the Champions League trophy in their hands. They made it to the competition’s championship game during the 2019–20 Champions League season. But they were unable to defeat Bayern Munich, who were the tournament favourites.
However, Real Madrid, the reigning European champions, had an absurd string of comeback victories in the competition’s knockout rounds the previous year. Against PSG, they began their comeback run. PSG has improved this season with further additions, and the team did exceptionally well in the group stages. In the Champions League, Kylian Mbappe in particular has been on fire.
Will Mbappe play against Bayern?
Kylian Mbappe’s eligibility to play on February 14 in the Champions League round of 16 matches against Bayern Munich has been affected by a thigh injury sustained last night. Galtier, on the other hand, discussed Mbappe’s injury. He claimed Mbappe was struck behind the knee, behind the thigh. He also experiences muscle aches.
On Thursday, PSG issued a medical update regarding Mbappe.
It read: “After undergoing tests, Kylian Mbappe suffered an injury to the left thigh at the level of the femoral biceps.
“He is expected to be out of action for three weeks.”
How did Kylian Mbappe sustain the injury?
Yesterday was a night to forget for Kylian Mbappe. Despite Neymar missing the first half of the game due to injury, PSG made a good start. PSG was awarded a penalty in the seventh minute of the game according to VAR. The first-choice penalty taker, Mbappe, missed the opportunity. The penalty kick was retaken as a result of goaltender interference. This time, Kylian Mbappe struck the crossbar and missed the follow-up with a ski.
The way Lionel Messi responded to all of that generated a lot of media attention. The night of Kylian Mbappe got worse. Leo Leroy of Montpellier made an effort to impede the Frenchman through the wings. And in the 20th minute of the game, that tackle caused Mbappe to grip his hamstring in pain. A little while afterwards, Galtier removed him.
Kylian Mbappe walked a little bit clumsily to the field without any assistance. Galtier’s replacement of him appeared to be rather circumspect. Given that there are crucial games in the league and the Champions League coming up, he didn’t take any chances with Mbappe.
