His manager Xabi Alonso confirmed he was suffering from an infection after the clash with the Saudi Pro League side and said he was not sure when he would return
"We still don't know if he'll be ready for the next match," he said. "He's been dealing with a serious viral infection. We'll monitor his progress closely in the coming days."
And on Thursday afternoon, Madrid posted a brief update on Mbappe's condition on their website, writing: "Our player Kylian Mbappe has acute gastroenteritis and has been hospitalized for various tests and treatment."

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca yet to speak to Mykhailo Mudryk after doping charges
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has revealed he has not yet spoken to winger Mykhailo Mudryk since the Ukrainian was charged with violating anti-doping rules. The 24-year-old is facing a lengthy ban after the Football Association announced on Friday it had charged the player. Mudryk has not played since being suspended last December after testing positive for a prohibited substance. He was last seen in public at the Europa Conference League final in Wroclaw last month having attended in a private capacity. Mudryk is not allowed to train with the squad, who are currently at the Club World Cup in the United States. Speaking ahead of the Blues' second match of the tournament against Flamengo in Philadelphia on Friday, Maresca said: 'I spoke with 'Misha' in Poland when we played the Conference League final but I didn't speak with him since that time. 'To be honest, I didn't see the news. They communicated (it to) me last night. There is nothing more that I can add at the moment because I don't have more information.' Chelsea did not officially comment after the charges were announced but have previously said they are supporting the player. Maresca said: 'The last time I spoke with Misha he was quite good. I didn't see him worried, or at least I didn't see him not good. It was OK. 'I don't know how he is now but for sure in the next days, weeks, we're going to have a talk.' Chelsea are in the market for a new winger this summer, and have been heavily linked with Borussia Dortmund's Jamie Gittens, but Maresca says that is not because of the Mudryk situation. The Italian said: 'We had already one entire season, almost, without Misha. 'We've decided to go for a winger not because of Misha. It's something quite clear, it's a position that we need to improve.' Maresca dismissed speculation over the future of another winger in England international Noni Madueke, with reports Arsenal are monitoring his situation. Maresca said: 'Noni is our player. In this moment, you can read much speculation about many players, but Noni is our player. We consider Noni our player for next season.' Maresca is set to make changes to his side for the Flamengo clash at Lincoln Financial Field due to the anticipated heat. The Blues, who opened their campaign in Group D with a 2-0 win over LAFC, are set to face the Brazilians at 2pm local time, with the temperature forecast to reach 28C. Maresca said: 'It's not easy because of the temperature. This is the reason why we're going to try to rotate players. 'Unfortunately for us, as a Brazilian team, they are more used to playing in this temperature – but it doesn't matter. We're going to try to do our best to win the game.'

Enzo Maresca shares Chelsea transfer plan as Mykhailo Mudryk faces four-year ban
Mykhailo Mudryk missed the second half of last season and Chelsea are openly looking for a new winger, having already had two bids turned down for Borussia Dortmund's Jamie Gittens Enzo Maresca is already planning for life after Mykhailo Mudryk. Chelsea winger Mudryk is facing a four year ban after being charged by the Football Association for a doping offence after failing a drugs test last November. Mudryk - nicknamed Mischa - missed the second half of last season and Chelsea are openly looking for a new winger in the summer window. They have already had two bids turned down for Borussia Dortmund 's Jamie Gittens. Chelsea boss Maresca said: 'We had already one entire season already without Mischa. We are going to decide to go for a winger. 'In both cases, we have Noni Madueke and Pedro Neto as proper wingers, then we try to adapt with Tyrique George. It's a position we need to improve.' Ukraine star Mudryk has promised to clear his name while he also showed up announced in Wroclaw for the Conference League final. Maresca insisted that he would back his player until told differently as the drugs case now goes through process as the winger - who cost £89m in January 2023 - waits to hear his fate. Maresca said: 'I spoke with Mischa in Poland when we played the Conference League Final. We haven't spoken since. There is nothing I can add. I don't have more information. "Mischa is a Chelsea player. Until he is not, I will trust. It's not just about Mischa. It's in general with all the players.' But Maresca insisted that England winger Madueke was not for sale this summer despite links with him leaving Stamford Bridge and he was also dropped last season amid criticism over his poor levels in training. Chelsea also have Estevao Willian, 18, arriving at Stamford Bridge and is regarded as one of Brazil's best prospects. He is at the Club World Cup but with Palmeiras and has already won five senior caps. Maresca added: 'Noni is our player. In this moment, you can read many speculation [about players]. We consider Noni as our player for next season.' Meanwhile, Chelsea star Andrey Santos is expecting a hot reception against Flamengo - and he is ready for one of football's great rivalries. Santos, 21, was born in Rio de Janeiro, played for Vasco da Gama and likened their rivalry with Flamengo to Argentina and Brazil. Brazil midfielder Santos said: 'Of course, against Flamengo there's always extra motivation, especially because I was playing for a rival team. 'Flamengo and Vasco da Gama is like Argentina and Brazil. It's a big derby so we have to improve in this game, but I'm so happy to play against Flamengo again. I'm looking forward to it. 'It's hard because I played for Flamengo's rival, so of course when I'm on the pitch they're probably not going to say nice things about me! It's probably going to happen but it's football, it's normal for me. 'I know there are many people from Brazil here and the support of their fans is amazing, but we have to be constant and to do our work.' Santos was signed by Chelsea in 2023, was loaned back and then had a frustrating loan spell at Nottingham Forest before going to Strasbourg last year. That was a big learning year for the Brazil international and he hopes that experience can help elevate him into being a big player for Chelsea this season. He added: 'In the past two years, things feel so different. In two years a lot of things have happened. Now I have my son, I'm married now, my whole life has changed and I have more experience. 'Last season for me was amazing because it wa say first season in Europe, first season competing in Europe and I scored 11 goals, four assists and we went to the Conference League and, for me, it was amazing. 'It's good to be here with my teammates, of course I enjoy the time here. This time is important for me, I enjoy being with my friends and getting to know my teammates more. 'Expectations are the best here, that we can work well, end the week well so that we can arrive at the game well and leave with a positive result.'
