Times are tough for Kylian Mbappé. Against Osasuna on Saturday, he went on to a fourth consecutive match without scoring despite Madrid’s big 4-0 victory. A new fairly average performance which earned him criticism in the Madrid media this Sunday and terrible comparisons with Vinicius Jr, author of a hat-trick during this La Liga match.
Not used to finding himself in this kind of situation since the start of his career, the Bondynois is understandably frustrated. Yesterday, he left the field at the final whistle, going straight back to the locker room, without even engaging in the usual hugs between teammates after a heavy victory. Daily life Marca says a little more about his moods…
Everyone supports him internally
The media explains that he is more and more anxious because of his somewhat disappointing debut in Madrid. He can still count on the support of his club. Ancelotti and the dressing room support and encourage him, and the Bernabéu crowd even sang his name to motivate him. The Spanish media indicates that his situation with the Blues and his problems with PSG also weigh and clearly do not help the player to flourish.
Well adapted to Real Madrid and the Spanish capital, he spends a lot of time with his family. The Mbappé clan often reassures him by telling him that it is only a matter of time before everything goes well. In the locker room, he is very close to the French clan and Brahim Díaz, who encourage him and help him not to lose his smile. Everyone knows that if Real Madrid want to win titles this season, the team will need a better version of Kylian Mbappé.
