Having been struggling for a few months now, Kylian Mbappé (25 years old) hopes to get off to a good start with Real Madrid. This Friday, A.S. reveals that the Frenchman told the Merengue locker room that he wants to become a leader of the team and that he is confident. An attitude that should please Teddy Riner. The judoka, double gold medalist at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, came to the aid of KM9 at the microphone of RTL.

“Every athlete has moments of less good and today he is at the bottom of the wave. Afterwards, like any athlete, he will bounce back, go back up this slope and that’s when we will see the great champion that he is. Every time I needed a change of scenery or a little rest, I took it. Every time I no longer wanted or needed a change of scenery or a little rest, I took it. It’s better to anticipate it than to find yourself in this somewhat deplorable situation. Afterwards, I had the chance, perhaps this intelligence, to put a psychologist and brain specialists at my side to be able to deal with any such eventuality.” Mbappé knows what to do!
