Mbappé Clears Training, Ready for France vs Spain Semifinal

Physical Issues Put Mbappé on Sidelines

Kylian Mbappé faced some physical issues during France’s World Cup quarterfinal win against Morocco. After the match, the Real Madrid striker joined his teammates for a training session. He completed the full workout without trouble and is set to feature in Tuesday’s semifinal against Spain.

Impact on France’s Lineup

The French captain has been leading the national side through the knockout stages, making his health crucial for coach Didier Deschamps. With Mbappé training fully, Deschamps can count on a confident attacking presence ahead of the semifinals. His readiness will help maintain the momentum France built in earlier rounds.

Injury Concerns for Other Players

Dayot Upamecano and William Saliba could not join their teammates in training, leaving their availability for Tuesday uncertain. Both players are expected to undergo close monitoring as they aim to recover in time. Meanwhile, midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni remains doubtful after sitting out the last two French matches with a thigh injury. The injury has been a lingering problem for Tchouameni and the French national team.

What Lies Ahead for France

As France prepares for the semifinal, the fitness of Upamecano, Saliba, and Tchouameni will be a key factor. The squad’s depth will be tested when facing Spain in a high‑stakes clash. With Mbappé back in full training, the French attack is positioned to stay a strong force in the knockout phase.
