Kylian Mbappe has been discharged from hospital in the United States after a bout of gastroenteritis.

The 26-year-old France international missed Wednesday night’s 1-1 Club World Cup draw with Al Hilal through illness, with head coach Xabi Alonso revealing he had a fever.

Real Madrid subsequently confirmed Mbappe was suffering from “an acute case of gastroenteritis” and had been admitted to hospital for further tests and treatment.

Later on Thursday, the LaLiga club revealed Mbappe had been able to return to the team’s training base to continue his recovery.

A statement on Madrid’s official website said: “Our player Kylian Mbappe was discharged from the hospital this afternoon and has returned to the Real Madrid training camp.

“Mbappe will continue receiving specific medical treatment and will gradually return to team activity.”

Los Blancos are due to play their second Group H fixture against Mexican side CF Pachuca in Charlotte on Sunday.

Real Madrid are second in their group after the opening round of fixtures, two points behind Red Bull Salzburg, who beat Pachuca 2-1 in Cincinnati during the early hours of Thursday morning.
