Mbappé Breaks Nose, Returns to French Team Camp
Kylian Mbappé suffered a broken nose during the second half of the Austria-France match held this Monday in Düsseldorf, according to a statement by the French Federation. Following the incident, Mbappé has returned to the base camp of the French national team.
The French team captain received immediate treatment from the medical staff and Dr. Franck Le Gall, who diagnosed him with a fractured nose. Following the diagnosis, a comprehensive care plan has been outlined for Mbappé, which includes ongoing treatment over the next few days.
Currently, there are no immediate plans for surgical intervention. Instead, the focus will be on therapeutic measures aimed at facilitating Mbappé’s recovery and ensuring his readiness to resume competitive play shortly.
An individually molded protective mask will be crafted specifically for him, ensuring that the French national team’s number 10 can adequately prepare for his return to competitive play after a focused period of treatment and recovery.
France secured their 100th victory under manager Didier Deschamps with a hard-fought 1-0 win against a resilient and well-organized Austria in their opening Group D match at Euro 2024.
