Real Madrid Star Kylian Mbappé Out For 3 Weeks Due To Knee Injury

Kylian Mbappé, the star player of Real Madrid, is facing a setback as he's set to be out for weeks due to a knee injury.

The French forward suffered a sprain in his left knee, and Real Madrid has confirmed he'll miss the next few weeks, including crucial matches like the Spanish Super Cup and the final two UEFA Champions League matches of the league phase.

Mbappé had been playing through pain but was unable to accelerate after returning to training, prompting the medical team to take a cautious approach. The injury is expected to keep him sidelided for at least three weeks, with a potential return against Villarreal on January 25.

Injury Update:

- Left knee sprain

- Expected return: At least three weeks

- Missed Matches: Spanish Super Cup, Champions League matches

Mbappé's absence is a significant blow to Real Madrid, as he's their top scorer with 18 league goals and 25 goals in all competitions. Xabi Alonso's team will have to rely on other players to fill the gap left by Mbappé.
