No plans for Mbappe to undergo knee surgery, Arbeloa hopes for swift return

Real Madrid have confirmed that Kylian Mbappe will not require surgery after sustaining a knee injury, easing immediate fears over a prolonged absence for the French forward. The club’s medical staff have opted against an operation and will instead conduct further examinations to determine the exact extent of the damage.

Former Madrid defender Álvaro Arbeloa expressed optimism that the 25-year-old could make a rapid recovery, underlining the importance of having Mbappe back in action as soon as possible for the club’s ongoing campaigns. While no timeline has been set for his return, the decision to avoid surgery is seen as a positive step toward a swifter rehabilitation process.

Mbappe, who joined the Spanish giants earlier this summer, has quickly become a focal point of the attack, and any extended layoff would represent a significant setback for the team. Further updates are expected once the additional tests are completed.
