Carlo Ancelotti confirmed Kylian Mbappé has joined the long list of Real Madrid players sidelined due to injury.
Ahead of Real Madrid's action-packed schedule, featuring matches against Atlético Madrid and Manchester City, Ancelotti revealed that his superstar number nine is dealing with a calf hematoma. The news comes just days after Mbappé was the victim of a dangerous tackle from Espanyol's Carlos Romero that conversely only ended with a yellow card.
Despite taking an extra recovery day after Los Blancos' 1–0 defeat to Espanyol, Mbappé is not fit to play. The 26-year-old now joins Dani Carvajal, Éder Militão, Eduardo Camavinga, Antonio Rüdiger and David Alaba in the infirmary.
Unlike his teammates' injuries, though, Mbappé's calf issue is not expected to keep him out of action for very long.
