Real Madrid Medical Staff Made Shameful Error in Mbappé's Injury Diagnosis

Real Madrid's medical staff reportedly made a scandalous error during Kylian Mbappé's injury diagnosis. The French forward has been battling left knee pain since late last year, causing him to miss several matches. Earlier this month, reports emerged that Mbappé was dissatisfied with how his injury was being managed in Madrid, leading him to return to Paris for a consultation with the renowned physician Bertrand Sonneri-Cote, a leading specialist in this type of injury.

Now, French journalist Daniel Riolo revealed a shocking detail on RMC's "After Foot" program: Real Madrid's medical team made such a significant diagnostic error that they actually examined Mbappé's *other* knee. Consequently, the club has reportedly dismissed everyone involved in this scandalous oversight.

“It's clear there was an error, which is why the player decided to travel to Paris. The diagnosis given for Mbappé's knee was more than catastrophic, as the mistake carried significant weight. That's why everyone was fired. It could have led to very serious consequences because Mbappé spent a lot of time unaware of his condition, playing in matches. His knee could have been shattered. The error was so monumental that in authoritative circles, it's being said that Real Madrid examined the wrong knee. What happened is a complete disgrace for Real, but I believe we avoided the worst for Mbappé.”

“I was fortunate to get the correct diagnosis when I was in Paris, and together we were able to devise the best plan to get me back to my top level and be fit for the end of the season with Real Madrid and for the World Cup. My diagnosis was made on a specific date, which I cannot disclose now. But everything that was said before that was completely untrue. I didn't go through that stage in the best possible way,” Mbappé stated yesterday regarding his injury.
