Kylian Mbappé denies rumors of 'medical error' at Real Madrid
Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé has personally stepped in to address the escalating scandal surrounding his recent knee injury. Over the past few days, European media—citing insider information from French journalists—have circulated shocking claims: allegedly, the medical staff of the 'royal club' performed an MRI scan on Mbappé’s healthy right knee instead of the injured left one during the initial examination.
Details: At the pre-match press conference ahead of the clash with Brazil, Kylian Mbappé was quick to reassure fans, stating that the rumors of a medical blunder have no basis in fact.
"The reports that Real Madrid examined the wrong knee are simply not true," the Frenchman said.
Kylian emphasized that there is complete understanding between himself and the club's management, and that his recovery process was under the strict supervision of both parties.
“We have always had clear communication with Real Madrid, and every decision regarding my rehabilitation was made together,” the forward added, standing up for the club’s medical staff against accusations of negligence.
Despite the player’s official denial, questions persist due to his trip to Paris for a consultation with an independent specialist. Reports indicate that after this visit, Mbappé switched to a more conservative treatment protocol, allowing him to avoid surgery and make a timely return for the season’s crucial fixtures.
It’s worth noting that tomorrow, March 26 at 21:00 Central European Time, Kylian Mbappé’s France will play a friendly against Brazil.
Reminder: Brazil head coach Carlo Ancelotti commented on the upcoming clash with Kylian Mbappé.
