the return of Kylian Mbappé is set!

One day before the Blues’ third match against Poland, the French team is not yet certain of finishing at the top of its group and needs a victory with a large enough score to overtake the Netherlands in the classification of group D and be assured of having a less tough opponent in the round of 16. And for this, the Blues are counting on the return of their captain, Kylian Mbappé (25 years old), who is seeing his nose injury progress positively.

For his fourth collective session, Kylian Mbappé also appeared with a new mask, undoubtedly a definitive version before his return to competition, he who had been forced to miss the match against the Netherlands (0-0). While Didier Deschamps explained that he still had to heal and get used to playing with this protection, this new equipment seems less bothersome and would allow him to have a more global vision, as he demonstrated during the last training session.

Worried at the time of his injury, the Blues group is now laughing about the situation of their captain, like Antoine Griezmann, who teased him with the song of the character Zorro. “A rider who emerges out of the night…”, hummed the Atlético de Madrid striker, with a big smile. The captain of the Blues was even able to participate in exercises in front of goal without the slightest protection. A very positive sign before the last match of the tricolors.
