A little over a year ago, Kylian Mbappé officially engaged with Real Madrid. Seven years after having signed in Paris Saint-Germain, Le Bondynois chose to go free for the club of his dreams. But despite fabulous personal statistics in front of the goal, his first Madrid season was not conclusive since his team won no trophy, with the exception of a very modest UEFA intercontinental cut. On the PSG side, the start of the adventure of Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid is not a surprise.
This is at least what some Spanish media believes. In the Carrusel program broadcast on the Cadena SerAritz Gabilondo told this Sunday how the departure of the tricolor international had been lived from the interior to Paris Saint-Germain. The journalist ofAS addressed the subject through the game practiced for a year by PSG of Luis Enrique. If the team plays better, it is because of “The defensive transformation with the departure of Mbappé, and Dembélé who assumes the role of false new”.
And the observer to slide a small confidence. “In fact, it was reported by internal sources of PSG, which they considered that they had solved a problem with this departure from Real Madrid. »» Then Aritz Gabilondo added: “Time shows that Real Madrid has the same problem as PSG, and that PSG no longer has it. »» Very often mentioned when it comes to Kylian Mbappé, the lack of defensive involvement of the former Monegasque is again on the table.
Kylian Mbappé will have to do more
Last season at Real, Vinicius Junior made these famous feedback to help his environment and his defense. But this year, the Brazilian ended up getting bored and has been reluctant to do what his attacking teammate does not do. Jude Bellingham has also often been annoyed on the ground of this lack of defensive involvement of its partners. We saw it again during the semi-final lost against PSG in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup.
Author of forty-four goals and five assists in fifty-nine games with Madrid, Kylian Mbappé is certainly the only responsible for Real problems. But some facts tend to show that he will have to do more in certain areas. Without him, Paris Saint-Germain has won everything this season, notably with the first Champions League in its history.
