Since his arrival at Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé has been compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, his assumed model. But this parentage goes far beyond simple statistics or prestige. Bondy's native can count on a direct link with the Portuguese icon, with whom he regularly exchanges. Discreet, but crucial support in a key phase of his career.
These conversations, which Mbappé recently revealed existence, are not trivial. They have become a benchmark in its process of adaptation to Casa Blanca. Behind each advice, there is the experience of a player who has forever marked the history of the club.
Mbappé, performances reminiscent of the best Ronaldo
In just a few months, Mbappé has already found the net of the nets 33 times, thus equalizing the thunderous beginnings of Cristiano Ronaldo in the Madrid jersey. A coincidence? Not really. For Carlo Ancelotti, the evolution of his attacker is clear: “It has what it takes to become a legend here, like Cristiano”, he said.
This comparison takes even more weight when you know that Mbappé received a very clear message from its idol.

CR7's message: “You were signed for that”
According to the Spanish media Defensa Central, Cristiano Ronaldo did not hesitate to encourage Mbappé to embrace his leader. “You were signed for that”, He would have told him several times. A supported encouragement, to remind the French star that in Real, we expect more than a simple scorer: a soul captain.
Mbappé seems to have perfectly integrated this expectation. Its influence within the workforce increases, as is its impact in decisive matches. As the titles are looming, Ronaldo's influence hovers like a benevolent shadow.
