Kylian Mbappe was absent from training on Tuesday just four days away from France’s World Cup quarter-final showdown against England.
The Paris Saint-Germain star has been in sensational form in Qatar, taking his tally to five goals in four games with a superb brace against Poland.
L’Equipe report however the 23-year-old was not present at training at the Jassim-bin-Hamad stadium where the rest of the team trained on Tuesday afternoon.
Reports claim Mbappe spent the day working in the France ‘recovery room’, working on a different schedule from his teammates.
England take on France for a place in the semi-final of the competition this Saturday.
Mbappe was carrying a slight injury issue earlier in the competition. The forward was pictured wearing strapping around his ankle ahead of the final group match against Tunisia, left on the bench for that game with France’s place in the last 16 already secured.
The ankle issue is said to have been picked up while Mbappe was playing for PSG but he has shown no signs that it has affected him Qatar with a string of superb performances for Les Blues.
