On March 25th, the host Manu Carreño and his team discussed Mbappe's injury and his remarks on the radio program "El Larguero" of Cadena SER.
French media reports claim that the Real Madrid medical team made a mistake in the examination last December, misdiagnosing Mbappe's knee.
At the press conference, Mbappe flatly denied: "The news is not true, maybe it was my negligence that caused the misunderstanding."
According to Antonio Romero, the main purpose of Mbappe's press conference on Wednesday was to quell rumors about his injury and explain the reasons for his poor performance since the injury: "He wants to reassure French fans and reassure everyone. He is fine now because he has started active training. The public statement is to let everyone know that he is preparing for the World Cup and has recovered from this injury that was not caused by himself."
Through this statement, Mbappe also dispelled rumors that he aggravated his injury in order to catch up with Cristiano Ronaldo's goal record at Real Madrid: "This shows that the injury is not related to the record, and he did not deliberately choose the game to play. He just pointed out that the Madrid team doctor who was in charge before was not skilled enough, which led to the error."
Miguel Angel Chazarri also said: "Obviously, Mbappe leaked this information in order to point the finger at Real Madrid. His intention is to protect himself, which is different from targeting the club."
