Mbappe’s Injury Clouds France’s Victory Over Austria

Concerns Over Star Player’s Availability for Upcoming Match Against the Netherlands

During the closing moments of France’s 1-0 win against Austria on Monday, Kylian Mbappe sustained a broken nose after a collision with Kevin Danso. The 25-year-old star took to social media to downplay the injury, but there are concerns about his availability for France’s next match against the Netherlands.

Philippe Diallo, president of the French Football Federation, confirmed that Mbappe will not need surgery for his broken nose. This is a relief for France’s manager, Didier Deschamps, as it gives Mbappe a slim chance of being fit for Friday’s game.

Mbappe is eager to play but must avoid rushing back to ensure he remains fit for the rest of Euro 2024. Real Madrid, who recently signed Mbappe, are also monitoring the situation closely, but his injury is not expected to affect his availability for the start of their pre-season.
