BREAKING. Kylian Mbappe has suffered a thigh injury. How long will he miss?

The injury epidemic in European football continues, as yet another top player has been sidelined.

Details: Real Madrid officially announced that Kylian Mbappé has been diagnosed with a thigh muscle injury. The star forward is set to miss three weeks.

This means Mbappé will be unavailable for Carlo Ancelotti's side in the upcoming derby against Atlético Madrid this Sunday. He will also miss the Champions League group stage match against Lille and the La Liga fixture against Villarreal in Matchday 9.

Additionally, Mbappé will not join the French national team for their upcoming UEFA Nations League matches.

The 25-year-old Frenchman is expected to return in time for Real Madrid's clash against Celta Vigo on October 19.

Reminder: Just yesterday, Kylian Mbappé scored in the match against Alavés. He became the fifth player in Real Madrid's history to score 5+ goals in his first seven La Liga matches.
