Kylian Mbappe Excluded from France Squad Amid Ongoing Injury, Legal Controversy

Posted : 08 November 2024

Kylian Mbappe has been left out of the France squad for their upcoming UEFA Nations League matches against Israel and Italy, with coach Didier Deschamps excluding the Real Madrid star from his latest selection. This marks the second consecutive time the French captain has been omitted, as he also missed the October fixtures against Israel and Belgium. His absence last month was initially attributed to a minor thigh injury sustained while playing for Real Madrid.

 

The decision to rest Mbappe in October sparked controversy when he made a swift return to action with Real Madrid just days before France's matches, raising questions about the legitimacy of his injury. During the international break, while France secured victories against Israel and Belgium, Mbappe was spotted taking a short trip to Stockholm with his entourage.

 

Shortly after, Swedish media reported that he was being investigated for an alleged rape, an accusation Mbappe has strongly denied, calling it "fake news." His lawyer indicated plans to pursue legal action for defamation.

 

A Swedish prosecutor confirmed the opening of an investigation without disclosing the player's name. Despite the off-field issues, Mbappe has since returned to play for Real Madrid, making four appearances and scoring once. However, his recent performances have shown signs of a dip in form as he continues to search for his top level following the injury and ongoing legal distractions.
