Paris Saint-Germain are worried about superstar Kylian Mbappe before the second leg in the Champions League round of 16 against Real Madrid (Wednesday, 8.45 p.m. in LIVE-TICKER). The striker was hit on his left foot during a tackle with Idrissa Gueye in training on Monday morning and complained of pain afterwards. PSG confirmed what too GOAL and SPOX had previously reported.
However, PSG is in good spirits that Mbappe can play. Tests on Monday revealed no fracture and no serious injury. A final decision should be made after the final training session on Tuesday evening.
PSG: Special game for Mbappe against Real Madrid
A failure of the 23-year-old would be a bitter loss for PSG. Mbappe is the French runners-up’ strongest player this season. He has scored 24 goals in 34 competitive games so far, plus 17 assists. Mbappe also scored the winning goal in Paris’ 1-0 win in the first leg.
