Journalist Daniel Riolo reports that Mbappe reacted to the initial assessment by the Royal doctors with clear frustration. “He apparently received a wrong diagnosis in Madrid. He obviously didn’t like it and was even angry.”

After the diagnosis in Madrid, “angry” Mbappé visited French doctors

And it gets worse. As a result, the striker turned to leading French specialist Bertrand Sonnery-Cottet. After the investigation, he came to the conclusion that “the work carried out in Madrid was inadequate.”

He then recommended a treatment plan that would stabilize the muscles. The approach ultimately proved crucial, allowing Mbappé to recover without surgery. The striker finally celebrated in the Champions League against Manchester City his comeback and was also used at the weekend in the derby win against city rivals Atletico Madrid.

Explosive report: Real doctors are said to have examined Mbappé’s false knee

Riolo also claims to have learned from “well-informed sources” that the controversy became even more serious. “It is said that the mistake was absolutely serious. There are claims that Real Madrid examined the wrong knee,” the journalist explained, raising serious questions about the club’s medical department.

In the show “L’After Foot” Riolo chose even more drastic words. “It’s an absolute shame for Real what happened. The wrong diagnosis could have been much more serious, because it took Mbappé a long time to find out what was really wrong with him. The Frenchman is even said to have played a few games without knowing exactly what was really going on with his knee. He could have ruined his knee.”

The misdiagnosis is also said to have been a decisive factor in the dismissal of the Royals’ medical staff.

“Absolute embarrassment for Real Madrid”

“This is an absolute embarrassment for Real Madrid. I think the worst was ultimately averted for Mbappé,” he added. There is still no reaction from Real Madrid regarding the allegations. Kylian Mbappé has meanwhile traveled to the French national team for the upcoming international matches.
