Kylian Mbappe's New Protective Mask Raises Concerns at Euro 2024

Kylian Mbappe unveiled a specially designed mask to protect his broken nose as he aims to return to the pitch for France at Euro 2024. The 25-year-old suffered the injury during France's opening game against Austria, but he did not require surgery. Mbappe may face a ban from wearing the mask due to Uefa rules, which state that medical equipment must be of a single color. Despite the uncertainty, Mbappe is hopeful of playing against the Netherlands, with coach Didier Deschamps stating that things are moving in the right direction for his availability. France is monitoring Mbappe's condition closely, and while he may be rested for the upcoming match, the team is in a strong position to qualify for the next stage. Mbappe's teammate, Cesc Fabregas, believes that wearing a mask will not affect Mbappe's performance, citing his own experience of playing with a mask after a nose injury. France is set to face the Netherlands and Poland in their upcoming matches as they aim to win the European Championship for the first time since 2000.
