Latest news at Real Madrid. Ibrahima Konaté, a 27-year-old center-back, has suffered a sprained right knee during the French national team's training camp and is returning to Madrid before the four Nations League matches. Leny Yoro, a 20-year-old defender from Manchester United, will take his place in the national team.

The injury occurred during a training session with the French national team on Wednesday, and the French Federation confirmed Konaté's absence on Thursday. The player will miss the matches against Turkey, Belgium, Italy, and Belgium scheduled between September 25 and October 5.

Ibrahima Konaté returns to Real Madrid due to injury

Konaté leaves his first national team camp with France since joining Real Madrid this summer. The Madrid club signed him for four seasons, until June 30, 2030, after his departure from Liverpool.

The center-back had played in the 7 official matches for Real Madrid this season, all as a starter, totaling 630 minutes with no goals or assists. He had featured in 6 games and 540 minutes in LaLiga, according to the club's official records.

His absence comes during an international period in which Real Madrid has several players on national team duty. The club had initially included Konaté in the France squad for the four Nations League games before the injury altered their plans.

France's diagnosis reports a mild injury, but there is still no official recovery timeline. Konaté will return to Madrid for further treatment and will be monitored for progress before his availability with Mourinho's team is determined.

Leny Yoro takes Konaté's place in France

Konaté's absence opens an opportunity for Leny Yoro, who at 20 years old receives his first call-up to the senior national team. The Manchester United defender moves up from the U-21 category to join the group led by Zinedine Zidane.

Yoro arrives after featuring in four matches for Manchester United at the start of the season. The English club highlights his full appearances against Sabah and Brighton, as well as his substitute role in matches against Ipswich Town and Everton.

His call-up holds a special significance due to his past. Yoro was a player at Lille before joining Manchester United in July 2024, and now he steps in for Konaté who has just begun his journey at Real Madrid.

Thus, the FIFA Virus has its first impact on Mourinho's squad during this break. Real Madrid's priority will be to assess the true extent of Ibrahima Konaté's injury once the tests and recovery process at Valdebebas are completed; with no official timeline, doubts remain regarding his return to action after the international window.
