Speculations are rife that France hit man, Kylian Mbappé may be excluded in the world cup quarter final crunch with England. Indication to this effect emerged as the France popular footballer has been reported missing in the training field with his France team-mates.

The 23-year-old football star is seen as the Three Lion’s biggest threat going into Saturday’s match, as he tops the tournament’s scoring charts with five goals in four games.

But Les Bleus staff stated that Mbappe did not take part due to ongoing recovery work following their victory over Poland last Sunday, despite others who featured in the same match, including Olivier Giroud, who did take part in the session.

It be recalled prior to the clash with the Polish team, Mbappe had complained of an ankle injury going into the tournament but that has not affected his performances as he has arguably been the star player in Qatar.

Undoubtedly, his absence at the training pitch will certainly excite both England’s players and staff.

Traditionally, players take part in recovery sessions in the day following matches.

However, it has been two days since Mbappe helped France into the quarter-finals by scoring a brace in their 3-1 victory over Poland.

Giroud, who became France’s all-time record leading scorer in the same match, did take part in training – alongside the majority of those that also featured on Sunday.

Les Bleus staff though have played down any concerns insisting that Mbappe is still doing some classic indoor recovery work following the clash with Poland.
