Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti disagrees with blaming Kylian Mbappe for the club's recent poor performance.
Ancelotti was quoted by Marca as saying:
Carlo Ancelotti
We don't consider it an individual problem for a player who, among other things, is new here, is adapting, has scored eight goals [in La Liga and Champions League] and has participated in our attacking game with assists. We can all do better. It's a collective problem and not an individual one.
Mbappe joined the Madrid club as a free agent in the summer of 2024 after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain ended. His contract with Real extends until the summer of 2029. Since his arrival at the club, he has played 17 matches, scoring nine goals and providing two assists.
Real forward Jude Bellingham defended his teammate Kylian Mbappe, stating that the French striker will only get better.
Earlier, French journalist Daniel Riolo criticized Mbappe for his performances in the current football season, stating that he “can no longer be called a footballer”.
