Broke his nose, Mbappé may miss the challenge with the Netherlands

 

Didier Deschamps was unable to confirm whether or not Kylian Mbappé will be able to return to the France squad for their next game against the Netherlands on Friday after the striker suffered a serious broken nose in Düsseldorf.

"He is not doing well. He is with the medical staff. I can't tell you anything else," Deschamps said after the 1-0 win over Austria. "His nose was badly hit. We have to control it. It's really unfortunate now."

Pressed on whether Mbappé had gone to hospital, Deschamps said: "The medical staff are taking care of him. I have no evidence at hand. The staff is checking it out. I saw her on the massage table. He didn't get off lightly. It remains to be seen.”
