There are many crises within Real Madrid, including the poor performances from the team, which have led to the loss of valuable points in La Liga and the Champions League.
The royal team is eager to change this atmosphere as soon as possible and return to the winning rhythm that has been absent in recent matches.
Spanish media reports have revealed that Real Madrid’s dressing room has begun to grow frustrated with the performance of French forward Kylian Mbappé, who has been with the team since his arrival.
Despite scoring 8 goals and providing 2 assists in 14 matches, his overall level of play has been considered modest, particularly in the recent Clasico against Barcelona and in the Champions League match against Milan, where he received widespread criticism from the Madrid media.
According to the Spanish newspaper “Relevo”, there is growing concern within the club regarding Mbappé’s impact on the team’s balance and the performance of his teammates, such as Jude Bellingham. It is reported that both coach Carlo Ancelotti and the players have noticed a flaw in the striker’s overall play, with the team’s pressing style not yielding the desired results, partly due to Mbappé’s lack of defensive contribution.
Statistics indicate that Mbappé covered just 8 kilometers during the Clasico, which is far less than the usual distance run by strikers. Some of his teammates also feel that he tends to wait to receive the ball, which raises concerns about his lack of defensive involvement. Everyone at the club hopes that Mbappé will realize the importance of contributing defensively.
Ancelotti is reportedly considering tactical changes to improve the team’s overall performance, as Madrid fans are hoping to see a stronger showing from Mbappé in the upcoming match against Milan on Tuesday.
