On June 23, France coach Didier Deschamps spoke again about Mbappé’s injury at a press conference, saying that things are progressing well.
France will face Poland in their final group stage match on June 26 at 0:00. Previously, Mbappé suffered a facial injury against Austria and missed the subsequent France vs. Netherlands match despite wearing a mask.
Deschamps now said about Mbappé’s injury: “Will Mbappé start against Poland? You’ll know the answer then. Things are moving in the right direction, he’s recovered from the initial impact, and the bruising around the injury is gradually improving. The mask has been modified a bit, but he’s also getting used to it.”
In addition, Aurélien Tchouaméni, who also attended the press conference, also talked about Mbappé’s injury, saying: “I think Mbappé wants to play in the next game, and he’s also getting used to playing with a mask. He probably prefers playing without it, but the doctors won’t let him! In any case, as long as he’s on the pitch, he can help us.”
