Mbappe misses France training before Nations League clash with Italy
Kylian Mbappe left the pitch during France's game in September but has been playing regularly for Real Madrid.
France's Kylian Mbappé is likely to miss their UEFA Nations League match against Italy on Thursday due to a hamstring issue, according to a report by L'Équipe. The Real Madrid player was absent from training and had to cut short his return flight to Milan. Mbappé, aged 27, is France's fourth injury worry this week. Aurélien Tchouaméni, Pierre Kalulu, and Marcus Thuram have already withdrawn from the squad.
Zinédine Zidane, who took over as manager, had previously seen Mbappé leave early from the last international camp. While the injury is believed to be minor, Mbappé may still play in the upcoming game against Turkey on Sunday.
