This Wednesday evening, in the Canal Champions Club show on Canal+, Samir Nasri shared an uncompromising analysis on Kylian Mbappé. Asked to comment on the Real Madrid striker’s recent performances, he said he had not noted any notable progress, particularly in recent matches.
“Mbappé? I didn’t find him particularly improving against Girona, apart from the goal he scored. And on yesterday’s match (against Atalanta), I can’t judge it because I didn’t see it in its entirety. launched the former attacking midfielder, suggesting that the player’s level did not live up to the expectations placed on him.
An interview criticized for its lack of depth
But Samir Nasri’s criticisms did not stop at his performances on the pitch. The former Arsenal and Manchester City player also spoke about the high-profile interview Mbappé gave to the show Clique. Like David Ginola the day before, he considered this intervention “uninteresting”.
“I followed the interview, and he didn’t talk about his problems with Real and his decline in level. But he doesn’t question himself. I would have liked him to address his thoughts, his performances and what he needs to do to get back to his level. I’m not interested in private life.” he emphasized with scathing frankness.
Nasri calls on Mbappé to question more
Samir Nasri seems to expect more from the French star, both on the pitch and in his public communication. For him, Kylian Mbappé should show greater introspection, like the great players.
This intervention, which occurs while Mbappé’s performances and media choices are widely discussed, takes place in a context where the Real Madrid player is under fire from criticism.
