Mbappe said on Thursday that he is well after the Euro 2024 experience in Germany, where he played in rare conditions after breaking his nose in the first match against Austria.
He explained that he underwent several medical examinations, which showed he did not need surgery. "Physically and mentally I'm fine," he repeated.
Moreover, the footballer assured that he will not have to undergo surgery: "I have had some tests, there is no need for surgery. There are no problems with breathing and sleeping. Surgery is not necessary."
Asked about the criticism of France's play during the European Championship, the national team's star forward explained that the players "try to give their best", although "you can't please everyone".
Tomorrow's match against Italy is part of the first day of the group stage of the new edition of the Nations League.
Although both teams did not play well at the European Championship, he was convinced that "it would be a great game"’ because it's still a France-Italy match. "We have to be prepared to see the best version of Italy," he said.
