The French international trained on Sunday February 12 with PSG, France Bleu Paris reported on Monday, confirming information from the newspaper The Team. The 24-year-old striker took part in part of Paris Saint-Germain’s collective training in a tracksuit.

Asked about the possibility of seeing Kylian Mbappé return sooner than expected, especially against the Germans of Bayern Munich on Tuesday February 14 in the knockout stages of the Champions League, coach Christophe Galtier was pessimistic on Saturday evening. “I do not think so, responds Christophe Galtier after his team’s defeat against Monaco 3-1, during the post-match press conference. He follows his rehabilitation protocol. He suffered a muscle injury. We will take zero, zero, zero risk with Kylian”.

Kylian Mbappé suffered a left thigh injury on Wednesday February 1 in Montpellier in the league. His duration of absence had been estimated at three weeks by the club.
