Real Madrid reveals Kylian Mbappé is hospitalized after missing Club World Cup match
Soccer superstar Kylian Mbappé missed Real Madrid's Club World Cup opening game Wednesday, and the team revealed the reason. Real Madrid said Thursday that Mbappé was hospitalized due to acute gastroenteritis. The team added Mbappe is going through "a series of tests" and will "follow the appropriate course of treatment" after getting results. Acute gastroenteritis is like the stomach flu, but there are differences. Mbappé, 26, began experiencing symptoms Monday and missed Real Madrid's practice Tuesday. The team didn't say he wouldn't be available for the game Wednesday, and head coach Xabi Alonso noted the team would "wait until the last minute" to decide on his game status, according to The Athletic. After Real Madrid finished with a draw against Al Hilal, Alonso said Mbappé's illness was worse than originally thought. Mbappé's timeline to return is now uncertain. Real Madrid has a game scheduled for Sunday against Pachuca in the Club World Cup. Mbappé is in his first season with Real Madrid, scoring 43 goals in 56 appearances for the Spanish club. Mbappé and the French national team will look for redemption in next year's FIFA World Cup after losing to Argentina in the final in 2022.

This comes after the Frenchman was forced to sit out Los Blancos' meeting with Al-Hilal on Wednesday night.

After making the trip to the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, the capital giants were forced to settle for a disappointing share of the spoils, owing to a 1-1 draw. The aforementioned Mbappé, for his part, was sorely missed by his teammates, who at times lacked a cutting edge in the final third. The 26-year-old was ruled out of the fixture after being struck down by a bout of illness this week. Speaking to the media on the back of the full-time whistle in Florida, the subject of Mbappé's wellbeing was, in turn, put to manager Xabi Alonso.

Kylian Mbappé hospitalized after being diagnosed with gastroenteritis: What does this mean for FIFA Club World Cup 2025?
Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé has been hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis, the club announced on Thursday. According to a report, his hospitalization has cast serious doubt over his participation in the remainder of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. Mbappé, who missed Madrid's opening 1-1 draw against Al-Hilal at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium on June 18, had been experiencing fever and gastrointestinal symptoms since Tuesday. According to the report, a club source revealed that the World Cup winner was immediately separated from the rest of the team and taken to the hospital on Wednesday for testing and treatment, as per The Guardian. The club issued an official statement where they shared Kylian Mbappé was suffering from acute gastroenteritis and was admitted to a hospital 'in order to undergo a series of tests and follow the appropriate course of treatment'. The club, however, has not specified how long the forward is expected to stay away. A club source told the Guardian that Mbappé has been ruled out of the group stage, which includes upcoming matches against Pachuca on Sunday and RB Salzburg next Friday. The illness, commonly referred to as the stomach flu, typically involves symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and fever. It can significantly impact physical performance. Also read: Real Madrid's Gonzalo Garcia scores goal in FIFA Club World Cup debut vs Al-Hilal - Watch Mbappé's absence is a blow for the first edition of the revamped Club World Cup. FIFA president Gianni Infantino is aiming for this tournament to be as popular as the Champions League and Premier League. Over 62,000 fans showed up for Wednesday's match, hoping to catch Mbappé play. Instead, they ended up watching Madrid draw with Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal, which was a letdown, the ET report added. Reportedly, the hospitalization is bad timing for Mbappé, especially since he just dealt with a broken nose during the European Championship last year and had to play with a mask on. He has been diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis, a stomach infection that causes vomiting, diarrhea, and fever. He missed the opening match and has reportedly been ruled out of the group stage. His availability for later matches is still unclear. He began experiencing symptoms on Tuesday and was hospitalized on Wednesday. As of now, he is not expected to feature in either game, though his condition is being monitored.
