Kylian Mbappe reported to Madrid, where he was to be officially presented on Tuesday. The Frenchman showed Real Madrid fans at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu and took part in a press conferencej. – It's a childhood dream come true. Something priceless – he said. He had also successfully passed medical tests earlier. However, the club doctors faced a certain dilemma.
Kylian Mbappe has decided to have a nose job. He has already gone on holiday
The injury concerns a nose injury that Mbappe sustained in his first Euro match against Austria. Towards the end of the match, the striker hit his nose against defender Kevin Danso's shoulder and broke it. The 25-year-old had the opportunity to undergo surgery, but then he would probably not have been able to play in the next matches of the tournament. In the end, he only missed the one against the Netherlands, and in the following ones he ran onto the pitch with a special protective mask. In the semi-final against Spain, he even played without it.
The topic of a potential nose operation returned after the Frenchman's arrival in Madrid. According to the daily “Marca”, Real's medical services ruled that it was not necessary and the player decided to give up. In this situation, he calmly went on vacation. He is to return to the club on August 7, after Real finishes its pre-season tour in the United States. At that time, he is to train without a mask, although, as the daily reports, it will depend on the condition of his nasal septum after returning from vacation.
It is already known that Mbappe will miss Real Madrid's friendly matches against AC Milan (August 1), FC Barcelona (August 4) and Chelsea (August 7). He is to play his first official match in his new colours in… Poland. He will most likely join the squad for the UEFA Super Cup match against Atalanta Bergamo, which will take place at the National Stadium in Warsaw. The clash is scheduled for August 14 at 9:00 p.m.
