Kylian Mbappé’s camp responded this Tuesday to the controversy over his trip to Sardinia during his recovery with a statement released through the French news agency AFP.
Those closest to the French international insist that the criticism “does not reflect the reality” of his daily commitment to the team. What is real is that the forward landed in Madrid just minutes before Real Madrid played Espanyol in Barcelona.
The club has neither denied the trip nor confirmed that it authorized it. Coach Álvaro Arbeloa put the matter to rest with a blunt statement: “The player does what he sees fit in his free time, and that’s not something I can interfere with.”

This Wednesday, Mbappé will undergo a medical check that will determine whether he can play in Sunday’s Clásico. The question no one is answering is whether the trip to Sardinia delayed his recovery or not.
