Kylian Mbappé did not take part in France’s training on Wednesday and remains under treatment before the Nations League match against Italy. The French staff did not specify the nature of his physical problem, according to information provided by the France team management.

Kylian Mbappé, captain of the France football team, did not take part in France’s training on Wednesday and remained under treatment before the Nations League match against Italy on Thursday in Milan, the France team management said.

The Real Madrid forward had already missed France’s last three matches through injury before returning for this camp. He scored the winning goal against Turkey in September before leaving the pitch because of pain in his left knee, according to the France team management.

France lead Group A1 of the Nations League with three wins and one draw after four matchdays. Les Bleus still have to face Italy on Thursday in Milan and Turkey on Sunday in Bordeaux to finish the group stage, according to the French team management.
