Mbapp diagnosed with hamstring injury 2 weeks ahead of Spanish league clasico
against Barcelona
MADRID (AP) --- Real Madrid said Monday star forward Kylian Mbapp has injured
his left hamstring, putting in doubt his participation in the Spanish league
clasico in two weeks.
The club did not give details on the severity of the injury or when Mbapp is
expected to return. It said his recovery will depend on how the injury
progresses.
Spanish media said the injury was not expected to sideline the France star for
too long.
Madrid will play the clasico against Barcelona on May 10 at the Camp Nou
stadium. Madrid trails its Catalan rival by 11 points with five matches
remaining in the season.
Mbapp had to be replaced in the 82nd minute of the team's 1-1 draw at Real
Betis on Friday.
The France striker had already lost playing time this season because of a knee
ailment. The World Cup begins in June.
