Mbappé’s injury: Real Madrid explains rest plan and trip to Paris

Real Madrid has set out its position after the uproar around Kylian Mbappé’s injury. The forward has not been recovering at Valdebebas and was also spotted in Paris with his partner, Ester Expósito, at a party, according to 'As' this Thursday.

The report says the club sees the trip as part of a mutually agreed and coordinated recovery plan involving the team’s medical staff and coaching staff, with José Mourinho mentioned as being on board. The key point is that, for now, the issue only requires active rest and there would be no benefit in him training in Valdebebas.

The article places the injury as coming from France’s match against Turkey. The expected time on the sidelines is between one and two weeks, with the aim of not pushing him so he can reach the El Clásico on October 25 vs FC Barcelona.
