Scores brace in victory Mbappe scored two goals to go with five shots (three on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 4-1 victory over Sevilla.

Impact Mbappe made his usual impact up front, which led him to draw and score a penalty kick in the 63rd minute while capitalizing on another close-range chance in the 37th against Sevilla. The star forward's attacking display was marred only by an error that led to the opposition's lone goal late in the game. His nine league goals now rank him ahead of Lamine Yamal and three short of Raphinha in the race for the scoring lead. He should continue to play a central role in the Merengues' attack in a tough week that will put his talent to the test with clashes against RB Leipzig and Barcelona in European and league action, respectively.

Impact Mbappe has fully recovered from the knee issue he picked up during the international break, having resumed full team training without any reported setbacks. Manager Mourinho's latest comments confirm the forward is ready to return to the starting XI against Villarreal, easing concerns over his fitness ahead of the La Liga restart. While Real Madrid also have a UCL clash against Roma coming up Wednesday, Mbappe appears ready to handle his usual attacking responsibilities, though his workload could still be managed depending on how Saturday's match unfolds.

Fully fit for Villarreal clash Mbappe (knee) trained normally with the rest of the squad Thursday and will be available for Saturday's La Liga clash against Villarreal, according to El Partidazo de COPE.

Impact Mbappe appears to have fully recovered from the knee issue he picked up during the international break, having participated in consecutive team training sessions without any reported setbacks. The forward's return to full fitness puts him firmly in contention to retain his starting role against Villarreal, providing Real Madrid with a significant offensive boost. While the club could still manage his workload ahead of the upcoming UCL clash against Roma on Wednesday, his unrestricted participation in training suggests he should be ready to feature from the opening whistle Saturday.

Resumes team training Mbappe (knee) was back in team training Wednesday ahead of Saturday's match against Villarreal, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Mbappe is making further progress in his recovery following an injury over the international break, with the forward now training with the rest of his teammates in Madrid. This does give confidence that the superstar could be fit in time for Real Madrid's match on Saturday, although they may not risk his health and take the cautious route instead.

Remains in individual training Mbappe (knee) continued his recovery with an individual session Tuesday and did not train with the rest of the team, according to Ruben Martin of Diario AS.

Impact Mbappe has yet to take the anticipated step of rejoining team training, leaving his status for Saturday's clash with Villarreal up in the air. The forward has progressed to individual work on the grass, but he'll likely need to get through a team session before being fully cleared for match action. His availability will be worth tracking closely over the next few days, especially with Real Madrid potentially inclined to manage his workload after the knee issue. Mbappe has been on fire this season, piling up seven goals and two assists across seven LaLiga appearances. If he had to miss the clash, Endrick or Carlos Espi would get increased playing time.

Impact Mbappe spent the second part of the international break working his way back from the knee injury he suffered with France, initially training on his own before returning to the grass for an individual session Monday afternoon and is now set to take the next step by rejoining the team on Tuesday. Tuesday's session will be the key checkpoint for his availability against Villarreal on Saturday, though Real Madrid could still manage his workload carefully given the knee issue and a demanding upcoming stretch with the Clasico against Barcelona at the end of the month. The forward has been in red-hot form this season, racking up seven goals and two assists across seven LaLiga appearances, making his status one to watch closely. If Mbappe isn't cleared to play, Carlos Espi or Endrick could step in to lead the line.

Spotted training on grass Mbappe (knee) was spotted training on grass Monday, but his status for Saturday's game against Villarreal remains uncertain.

Impact Mbappe spent the international break in France with the club's approval, but he didn't waste time and started working on the grass as soon as he returned. It remains to be seen if he'll play Saturday against Villarreal, as Real Madrid have a packed schedule over the next few weeks that includes matches against Manchester City and FC Barcelona, but his return to training with the ball is certainly a step in the right direction. If Mbappe, who has seven goals in LaLiga this season, doesn't play Saturday, look for Carlos Espi or Endrick to take his place.

Impact Mbappe spent the international break recovering in Paris with the club's approval, as the knee injury prevented him from returning to full training. His return to Madrid and the training ground in the coming days will mark the final stretch of his recovery, though Real Madrid could still manage his workload carefully against Villarreal given the knee issue. Mbappe has been firing on all cylinders this season, racking up seven goals and two assists across seven La Liga appearances. If he is unable to feature, Carlos Espi or Endrick could step in to lead the line.

Travels to Paris, not training Mbappe (knee) was spotted in Paris while recovering from injury, as he is not yet able to train normally with his club, according to Madrid Zone.

Impact Mbappe was surrounded by some criticism and questions after he was spotted in Paris this week at a nightclub despite an ongoing recovery from a knee injury. However, the situation was made clearer, as Real Madrid approved the trip during the international break, with the French forward unable to train normally yet at the club's training grounds. His only instructions at the moment are to continue resting and heal the knee as they get close to resuming league play, seeming more and more likely to potentially receive further rest when they take the field against Villarreal on Oct. 10 in their return match.

Could receive rest vs. Villarreal Mbappe (knee) could be rested against Villarreal on Oct. 10 , according to Jose Felix Diaz and Carlos Forjanes of Diario AS.

Impact The star forward suffered a knee injury in France's 2-1 win over Turkiye, and while he avoided surgery, Los Merengues aren't going to rush his recovery. Although Mbappe's projected recovery timeline suggests he could be available against Villarreal, manager Jose Mourinho might rest him to give him extra time to recover. After Villarreal, Real Madrid will face Roma (Oct. 14), Sevilla (Oct. 18), RB Leipzig (Oct. 21) and FC Barcelona (Oct. 25) over an 11-day stretch. With that in mind, resting him against Villarreal wouldn't be the worst idea, with Carlos Espi and Jude Bellingham as a false nine as potential options to take his place.

Kylian Mbappé's Injury With France Sees Him Return To Real Madrid Early

Could avoid missing matches Mbappe has been diagnosed with a hyperextension of the posterior capsule of his left knee, Real Madrid confirmed Saturday, with Diario AS reporting a 10-12 day absence.

Impact Mbappe could feature in every Real Madrid fixture in October despite Friday's scare, with the reported 10-day absence expiring inside the international break. The club's statement confirmed the diagnosis but set no return date, so the timeline remains an estimate. Carlos Espi is the natural alternative at centre-forward if the club opts to hold Mbappe back, with the summer signing from Levante having already contributed two late goals from the bench.
