A new report has offered a huge update on Kylian Mbappe's availability for France at Euro 2024.

France began their Euros campaign with a big 1-0 win over Austria on Monday.

Mbappe created an opening as his cross was met by Maximilian Wober, who headed into his own net.

But their victory was marred by Mbappe breaking his nose late on in their Group D fixture.

He clashed with defender Kevin Danso, resulting in a bloody incident as France's star man was taken off.

An initial report provided a worrying update on the forward, who captained his national team in their opener.

But a fresh report from RMC Sport claim there is 'hope' of seeing Mbappe play against the Netherlands on Friday despite his broken nose.

But it's claimed the 25-year-old is in a 'real race against time' regarding the mask he will have to wear.

The timing is 'very tight' as he has not yet received his protective mask, but 'hope exists' for him to feature in their second Euros game of the tournament.

The report states that a mask could arrive today, which would allow him to train with it in the evening.

However, Mbappe could receive the mask on the day of the match, meaning he would have little time to test the mask ahead of wearing the protective gear against the Netherlands.

According to the report, one thing is certain, the mask will arrive well before the match and 'delivery times have been considerably reduced'.

The now-Real Madrid player trained on Thursday ahead of potentially playing from the start against the Dutch.

He wore a bandage on his nose as he went through his paces with the rest of the squad.

France currently occupy second spot in Group D ahead of meeting Ronald Koeman's side in Leipzig.

Les Bleus then play Poland next Tuesday.
