Overview

• After a minor right-ankle issue with Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé told reporters he feels fit to play and described the problem as nothing serious.
• Didier Deschamps said the issue is not prohibitive and indicated Mbappé would train on the eve of the match before a decision is made.
• At Wednesday’s session in Clairefontaine, Mbappé warmed up and did low‑intensity runs before stopping early and watching from the bench.
• Spanish outlets including Marca cast doubt on his involvement and noted Real Madrid are closely monitoring his condition.
• Ibrahima Konaté, managed for a quadriceps concern, also trained separately and is considered unlikely to feature against Azerbaijan.
