In the opinion of many observers, Kylian Mbappé’s second season at Real Madrid is so far better than the first. If he finished the previous year as Pichichi and European Golden Shoe, the French striker also lacked consistency in major meetings, which cost the White House dearly. However, since the restart, the crack merengue seems more regular and better connected with his teammates.
“He is much betterconfirms his predecessor in this position, Karim Benzema, interviewed by the Spanish daily A.S.. Scoring goals is nothing new for him. He did it at PSG and he will score goals at Real Madrid, a lot more. There will be matches where Mbappé will not touch the ball. What we expect from Kylian is that when he gets one, he has to score. Real Madrid is like that. »
“Real Madrid needs him a lot and there are matches where we have to score goals, like against Atlético Madrid, Liverpool… These are teams that are falling back and he has to show himself, work on these situations. He must combine with Viniciuscontinues the former French international, who now plays for Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia. Real Madrid is waiting for Mbappé for these moments, to win the Champions League. »
Kylian Mbappé, the advice for a Ballon d’Or
And Cristiano Ronaldo’s former lieutenant gave good advice to the former Parisian. “I think he can get there with the other players. He can’t do it alone. He needs Vinicius, other players… That’s how it is. I think Vinicius, Mbappé, Rodrygo, even if he doesn’t play much, Bellingham… They have to communicate. One is there to score goals, the other to make assists”he believes.
“We are not going to tell Bellingham to score goals because that is Mbappé’s role, nor for him to be number 10 because that is Bellingham’s role. They must communicatehe insists. He is better, but he needs to concentrate more at this moment when Real Madrid needs him because he has everything to do it. » Only his collective success will bring him the Ballon d’Or, which he covets so much. Karim Benzema is well placed to know this.
