Real Madrid have announced that forward Kylian Mbappe has suffered a sprain in his left knee. The club’s brief statement came on Wednesday and confirmed the injury but did not specify how long the France international would be sidelined. However, reports suggest Mbappe could be out for at least three weeks.
Mbappe has reportedly been dealing with an issue involving the lateral ligament in his knee for several weeks. An MRI scan conducted on Wednesday morning revealed a lesion that requires treatment and rest.
The striker has been in excellent form this season. Earlier in December, Mbappe scored his 59th goal for Real Madrid in 2025, matching Cristiano Ronaldo’s club record for most goals scored in a single year.
Since joining Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2024, Mbappe has netted 29 goals this season, including a league-leading 18 in La Liga.
Real Madrid’s next match is scheduled for Sunday against Real Betis in La Liga, where Mbappe’s absence will be felt.
