Real Madrid club and France national team forward Kylian Mbappe commented on his condition after sustaining an injury and life in the Spanish capital:

"My ankle? I want to play. The coach wants me to play. I don’t think it will be a big problem, as I feel good.

I haven’t trained yet, but I will participate in training today. There’s no worry. I want to play and qualify with the ‘les bleus’ for the World Cup.”

"I have settled well in Madrid and feel more relaxed here. I definitely don’t want to attack France, of course not.

The lifestyle is different since there’s less unrest here than in Paris. Here, I’ve managed to control my mind and my legs.”

26-year-old Kylian Mbappe has been playing for Real Madrid since last year and has scored 58 goals in 69 matches.

In this season, the Frenchman has scored 14 times in 10 matches.
