Mbappe is set to play for Real Madrid again this month, but there is no suggestion that the issue will rule him out of the World Cup. However, any setback for France’s best player will be a concern for the national team. <\/p>\n

City manager Josep Guardiola has given positive updates about Rodri’s recovery in recent days and the former Ballon d’Or winner should play again this season.<\/p>\n

Players and coaches have increasingly warned of the impact of an ever more congested playing schedule, with the expanded World Cup set to take place a year after the restarted, super-massive Club World Cup. The Champions League has also been expanded in recent years.<\/p>\n

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta describes the demands placed on his players as “an accident waiting to happen.”<\/p>\n

Brazil: Eder Militao (hamstring), Rodrigo (ACL)<\/p>\n

France: Hugo Equitique (Achilles)<\/p>\n

Germany: Serge Gnabry (adductor)<\/p>\n
