Luis Figo warns Kylian Mbappe over rushing comeback amid knee injury

Kylian Mbappe has powered Real Madrid this season with 38 goals, but a serious knee problem now casts doubt over his availability for the campaign’s decisive stretch. He missed Real’s defeat to Osasuna in February with what was first described as a sprained left knee, and there are growing fears of a partial tear of the posterior cruciate ligament.

The club remains publicly optimistic about his return for the Champions League round of 16 tie with Manchester City, yet the medical reality demands a careful balance between immediate gain and long-term health. Real legend Luis Figo, speaking in his role as a Betfair ambassador, urged caution.
