JAKARTA - The captain of the French national team, Kylian Mbappe, suffered a broken nose during the Euro 2024 match against Austria on Monday, June 17 or Tuesday morning WIB, as confirmed by the French Football Federation (FFF) after the match.

The 25-year-old forward, who is one of the big names in the 2024 European Cup, was injured when he collided with Austrian defender Kevin Danso's shoulder while fighting for air balls. Mbappe was later replaced towards the end of the match and left the stadium in an ambulance to undergo an X-ray check.

"Kylian Mbappe suffered a broken nose during the second half of the Austrian vs France match on Monday in Duesseldorf," said a statement from the federation. "The French team was first handled by medical staff and doctor Franck Le Gall, who diagnosed a broken nose. This diagnosis was confirmed during a radiological examination at the Duesseldorf hospital."

However, after undergoing the treatment of the striker, who will play at Real Madrid next season, he will not be absent.

"Kylian Mbappe has returned to the base camp of the French team. He will undergo treatment in the coming days, without undergoing immediate surgery," FFF said.

"A mask will be made to allow the France team number 10 to consider returning to competition after a period dedicated to maintenance," the FFF said.

France will face the Netherlands on Friday and Mbappe is now in doubt for the match, which is a major blow to the French team.
