Kylian Mbappé released from hospital after being treated for gastroenteritis
Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappé has been released from hospital after being treated for gastroenteritis, the club announced on Thursday.
Real Madrid had said earlier on Thursday that the 26-year-old had been admitted to hospital after suffering from 'an acute case of gastroenteritis.'
The Spanish club said he would undergo tests and 'follow the appropriate course of treatment.'
Later in the day, Los Blancos said that Mbappé had left hospital and returned to the team's training complex in Palm Beach where he would 'continue with specific medical treatment and will gradually return to team activity.'
Gastroenteritis is an infection of the intestines that can cause diarrhea, pain or cramping in your abdomen, nausea or vomiting, and sometimes fever, as described by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
Mbappé missed Real Madrid's opening game at the FIFA Club World Cup on Tuesday in Miami where it drew 1-1 with Al-Hilal of Saudi Arabia.
Real's next game at the tournament is against Mexican side, Pachuca, on Sunday in Charlotte, North Carolina. Its final group game is against Salzburg on June 26 in Philadelphia.
The Club World Cup is Real's first competition under new head coach Xabi Alonso who replaced Carlo Ancelotti at the end of the season.
In Mbappé's debut campaign with Real Madrid last season, the French captain scored 43 goals in 56 matches, winning the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Intercontinental Cup along the way – as well as the European Golden Boot as Europe's top scorer – but missed out on the La Liga title by four points and was knocked of the Champions League by Arsenal in the quarterfinals.

Olympic leader Bach got 10% raise in 2024 payment that trails far behind soccer's elected leaders
GENEVA — The International Olympic Committee paid its president Thomas Bach $350,000 in 2024, the Olympic body said Friday — a 10% raise for his final full year in office after a two-year freeze. The payment, or 'indemnity' in Olympic language, revealed in its annual report is small compared to soccer bodies that, like the IOC, are based in Switzerland and count annual revenue in billions. Bach on Monday will formally hand over to President-elect Kirsty Coventry , who will start an eight-year initial term as the Olympic body's first female leader and first from Africa. The IOC has classed the 71-year-old Bach as a volunteer on a full-time executive mission who 'should not have to finance activities related to his function from his personal savings.' Bach, who also gets living allowances, was paid from 12% to 15% what soccer gives its top elected officials. FIFA paid its president Gianni Infantino $5.2 million in taxable salary and bonus last year, plus other expenses. Infantino also is among the 109 IOC members and so can claim $7,000 each year for office costs and $450 daily allowance when on Olympic business. UEFA president Aleksander Čeferin got almost $4.3 million in taxable income last year, including $300,000 from FIFA as one of its vice presidents. It is unclear if the 41-year-old Coventry will be a salaried president of the IOC instead of officially a volunteer. The IOC was asked for comment. The two-time Olympic champion in swimming left her job as sports minister of Zimbabwe after winning the seven-candidate IOC election in March. Bach's annual payment has been decided by the IOC's ethics commission on the stated principle 'the president should not financially benefit from his position.' The German lawyer held a series of business consultancies and board of director seats before being elected in 2013 to lead the IOC. The IOC paid Bach 225,000 euros ($259,000) in 2020. It rose to 275,000 euros ($317,000) in the year of his re-election, 2021, then was frozen for each of the next two years. International sports bodies have typically published details of leadership pay as part of governance reforms, particularly after corruption scandals in soccer. ___ AP Olympics:

Spain U21 vs England U21 prediction: La Roja to end Young Lions' Euros?
Lee Carsley will hope his Young Lions can keep their U21 Euros hopes alive (PA Wire) Spain U21 vs England U21 tips: BTTS and Spain to win - 4/1 Bet365 James McAtee to score at any time 22/5 Unibet England U21's face Spain on Saturday in the quarter-final of the European Championships and will need to be much improved from their performance last time out against Germany. Advertisement Lee Carlsey's side found themselves a goal down after just three minutes despite Germany making 11 changes for the game, after already qualifying for the knockout stages. Ansgar Knauff opened the scoring when he took advantage of a mistake by Liverpool's Bayer Leverkusen-bound defender Jarell Quansah and they were 2-0 up just after the half-hour mark when Nelson Weiper somehow got in between the England defence to head home. Despite dominating possession in the second half, they struggled to create any clear-cut chances despite the introduction of £15m striker Jay Stansfield. They eventually pulled a goal back with 14 minutes remaining when a cross from Omari Hutchinson was tapped in from close range by Alex Scott. Advertisement They battled in vain to secure the equaliser, meaning they finished second in Group B with one win, one draw and one defeat from their three matches. Spain finished top of Group A after wins against Slovakia and Romania and a 1-1 draw with Italy last time out. Carsley's side will take some confidence from the fact that their opponents have conceded in all three matches so far, but they have also scored six. England managed three in their opening game against Czechia but were held to a goalless draw against Slovenia and struggled to break down Germany, but they will have to be at both their attacking and defensive best on Saturday. Spain U21 vs England U21 prediction: Will Young Lions come undone? These two sides met in the final of the last European U21 Championships back in 2023, and back then, it was England who came out on top. Advertisement Curtis Jones scored the only goal of the game when he deflected a free kick from Cole Palmer past Arnau Tenas in the Spain goal. England goalkeeper James Trafford ensured the victory when he saved a penalty from Abel Ruiz eight minutes into stoppage time. Football betting sites have Spain as the favourites to win the title at odds of 7/2, just ahead of France and Germany at 4/1, while England are fourth favourites at 11/2. Spain have reached the final of this competition five out of the last seven times, winning it three times, the last of which came in 2019 when the tournament was held in Italy and San Marino. They have already shown their battling qualities after netting late winners against both Slovakia and Romania, so this is going to be anything but easy for Carsley's side, who will need their experienced players to step up. Advertisement Betting sites are backing Santi Denia's side at odds of 13/10, while you can get 47/20 on an England win and 12/5 on a draw after 90 minutes. Both sides are capable of scoring goals, but they have also conceded more than they would have liked and providing England have learnt the lessons from the defeat to Germany, they will make life very hard for Spain, as they look to defend their title. You can get 9/2 on either team to win on penalties or 11/2 on either team to win after extra time, and that could be worth a look. As much as I would love to see England progress, I just think Spain will have too much in Trnava. Spain U21 vs England U21 prediction 1: BTTS and Spain to win - 4/1 Bet365 Spain U21 vs England U21 betting: England need a captain's performance We all know what James McAtee is capable of, scoring seven goals for City last season, and his side will need some of that magic against Spain. Advertisement The 22-year-old made his debut in 2022 and was named captain ahead of the tournament. Betting apps are offering 19/2 on him scoring first or 22/5 to score any time, or you can get 2/1 on him to score or assist. Spain U21 vs England U21 prediction 2: James McAtee to score at any time 22/5 Unibet Please gamble responsibly When having a bet, it's vital to practice responsible gambling. Betting can be addictive and it's important to stay in control of your betting. Never treat gambling as a way to make money, never bet more than you can afford and when the fun stops, stop. Gambling sites offer punters tools, like deposit limits, profit and loss trackers and self-exclusion options, to help them stay in control.
