Euro 2024: Deschamps gives update on Mbappe’s injury ahead France vs Netherlands

France head coach, Didier Deschamps, has hinted that Kylian Mbappe could play in their second Euro 2024 fixture against the Netherlands.

Mbappe’s availability has been in doubt since he suffered a broken nose during the 1-0 win over Austria.

However, the Real Madrid-bound striker returned to training on Tuesday and could now be involved on Friday.

“I can confirm that Kylian Mbappe is feeling better and all is evolving well to see him available for tomorrow,” Deschamps said.

“It’s moving in the right direction.”

Mbappe is expected to have a custom mask made for him ahead of the match.
