This time, she is there. If the European Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup had saved Real Madrid from zero points last year, the white season is very real for the Merengues in 2025-2026. After the eliminations in the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, La Liga was definitively lost on Sunday evening during the Clasico won by FC Barcelona (2-0).
Obviously, this looks bad for Kylian Mbappé who arrived at a club which won everything from a club which, since then, has won its first C1 without him (and perhaps soon its second). The Bondynois is still at the center of everything at Real, even after a week where the improbable altercation between Aurélien Tchouaméni and Federico Valverde occupied the news.
Mbappé didn’t play Sunday evening in Barcelona? He still caused controversy by posting a photo of the match on his TV screen. Some believe that he did it on purpose to publish his story at 2-0 in favor of Barça, when he could have done it at kick-off, at 0-0.
Mbappé, the smallest detail gets people talking
There is always a lot of “noise” around Mbappé, and his package recorded on the eve of the Clasico is also causing talk. According to a journalist from Onda Cero, he announced that he had pain in his thigh after learning that he would be a substitute. A timing that makes people talk.
According to another journalist, Pedro Almeida, Mbappé is now far from being untouchable in his club. Real would have placed him in a list of players who could be transferred this summer, which seemed unthinkable for the captain of the Blues, supposed to embody the Madrid project for years to come. Especially when we’re talking about a player who is currently top scorer in La Liga and top scorer in the Champions League.
If Mbappé sometimes complained about the treatment of the French media, it is clearly worse in Spain where, with the support of social networks, the smallest detail is commented on. So, on his Sunday evening story, some noticed that he was watching beIN Sports, a channel which does not hold the rights to La Liga in Spain. Either he had connected a VPN to listen to Benjamin Da Silva and Omar Da Fonseca, or he had left Madrid to return to France. A ridiculous accusation? One more element in a prosecution case, above all.
