Kylian Mbappe is expected to be fit to partake in Paris Saint-Germain’s clash with Bayern Munich in the Champions League Round of 16 on Tuesday night. According to multiple sources, the PSG striker was seen participating in his team’s training session on Sunday.
While Mbappe reportedly did not stay with his squad for the entirety of Sunday’s training session, he is expected to be a full participant in training on Monday.
Mbappe suffered a hamstring injury on February 1 during PSG’s 3-1 victory over Montpellier. Since then, the reigning Ligue 1 champions have struggled to find form, being eliminated from the French Cup by Marseille before losing 3-1 to Monaco in their latest Ligue 1 match.
“We need to do less talking, work hard, analyze things properly,” PSG coach Christophe Galtier reflected after his team’s latest defeat. “Of course, our players have their pride, so do I. Yes, we’re worried [about facing Bayern]. But we must keep a clear head.”
Although the team appears to be in desperate need of Mbappe’s firepower up front, Galtier insisted that his team will not take any risks by using Mbappe if he is not entirely fit enough to play.
