Kylian Mbappé’s positioning at Real Madrid is fueling debate in Spain. However, Carlo Ancelotti does not plan to put the former PSG player on the left side.

Sunday evening, at 9:30 p.m.,
Real Madrid will host Betis in the last match of the fourth day of La Liga. On the eve of this meeting, Carlo Ancelotti appeared at a press conference. The Italian coach obviously did not escape a question about Kylian Mbappé’s adaptation.

“He plays very well even though he didn’t score, his influence creates dangerreplied the former Paris Saint-Germain coach. Mbappé’s adaptation is not a problem. For me, they are a good team and the offensive work is very well done. We have not had an offensive problem in recent years and we will not have it now because we have the best strikers in the world. Vinicius Jr. and Mbappé have alternated, but Vinicius has played more on the left and it will continue like this.

Mbappé will continue to play as a centre forward

Although he found the back of the net in his first official match for Real Madrid, during the UEFA Super Cup,
Kylian Mbappé
has still not scored a single goal in La Liga. Despite this inefficiency, the captain of the French team will therefore continue to occupy the number 9 position.

“Kylian is the last thing on our minds, assures Ancelotti. We think about defensive work. Criticism is absolutely normal, because the level of demand is at its maximum with this team. Until May, we will have criticism.
