Kylian Mbappé, Act II. On Monday, the 26 -year -old French started his second exercise in the colors of Real Madrid. And the captain of the French team is motivated like never before. “New season … Want to do something big. Let's go together, Madridistas !!! Hala Madrid!“, He wrote on his account Instagram Last night after the first Merengues training session. The former Paris Saint-Germain player is determined, he who wants to win titles, notably the Champions League after which he has been running for years.
Mbappé took power
For this, the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium try to surround Mbappé as well as possible, who is clearly their new star. It was to him that they proposed to recover the legendary number 10, left free since the departure of Luka Modric. Arda Güler hoped to obtain it. But the management of Casa Blanca was very clear and bet on the tricolor striker. A choice that pays since the jerseys flocked in its name and at n ° 10 tear like hotcakes. Florentino Pérez and his teams now hope that he will have a very long season.
They wish the same for Vinicius Junior, with which discussions concerning an extension are stalled. The Brazilian and his entourage were very clear since they want Vini Jr to receive an equivalent or even higher salary than that of the French. But there Cadena Ser Recently explained that the Merengues refuse and that they cannot give this salary to two players. It is thus very clear for them that they will favor KM10. What is visibly aware of the international Auriverde.
Vini Jr does not want to live in his shadow
This Tuesday, the Cadena Ser assures that “The Brazilian does not want to live in the shadow of Kylian Mbappé”. Vini Jr, who was one of the darlings of management and supporters a few years ago, feels that the wind turned and that it is less appreciated than before, between its drop in diet and the various controversies which it was rightly or wrongly. All this has exhausted the patience of Madrid fans, who are now leaning for Mbappé “Having become the face of the new project of Florentino Pérez”.
And for the Iberian media, it may play on its future. Journalist Santi Ovalle explains: “The Real Madrid project is based on Mbappé. Then, Vini will have to decide if he is based on Mbappé with Vinicius or on Mbappé without Vinicius. ” Aritz Gabilondo has the same opinion and added: “It reminds me of what happened with Neymar and Messi. Do you remember when Neymar must have left because he still saw himself in the shadow of Messi? Well, we head for something similar. ”
A problem for the Brazilian salary and the soundtrack
Tired of being in the shadow of Lionel Messi, Ney had joined PSG, to be the star of the project and put the odds on his side to win the Ballon d'Or. Which did not work. Real Madrid is found in the same situation for club followers. “I think Vinicius thinks it will be very difficult for him to win a golden ball. If everything is going well for him, everything will be going as well for Mbappé collectively. The fact is that Mbappé plays for a national team like France and can progress, whatever the results of Vinicius. »»
A player who saw the Ballon d'Or pass under his nose in 2024 and who has since been destabilized according to the Ser. “The serious error of Vinicius is to ask for equal pay while its performance is lower than those of the time when he was a candidate for the Ballon d'Or. He should have asked for it when he left the ceremony, when he was in a position of force ”concludes the Spanish radio. Vinicius Junior plays Gros, he who knows that he no longer necessarily has his hand against Real Madrid. A club that is fully behind Mbappé. This does not do the business of Brazilian, both for his salary and for the Ballon d'Or.
