""Right now he has some discomfort," coach Xabi Alonso said on Saturday. "They'll have to evaluate it with the national team. We hope it isn't serious, but right now we can't say anything.""

Kylian Mbappé will join France for the international break despite sustaining a mild ankle sprain in Real Madrid's 3-1 win over Villarreal. France medical staff will assess the ankle and decide whether he should stay with the national squad or return to Madrid for treatment. Franco Mastantuono suffered a minor hamstring strain and will join Argentina for evaluation. Federico Valverde will remain in Madrid during the break under an agreement with Uruguay coach Marcelo Bielsa after a week that included denying reports he refused to play out of position and being deployed at right-back. Mbappé scored in the 81st minute and was substituted shortly after, extending his run to nine consecutive matches scoring for club and country. France face Azerbaijan and Iceland in upcoming fixtures.
