Initially criticized during the first half of the season, Kylian Mbappé is finding his rhythm at Real Madrid, much to the delight of his teammates and the coaching staff.
In a recent interview with Clique, the French star expressed his optimism about his new chapter abroad, acknowledging the challenges but emphasizing the importance of the season’s second half. Despite Real Madrid’s recent struggles, including a disappointing loss to Barcelona in the Super Cup, Mbappé has been one of the standout performers. His impressive display in the Clasico, where he scored Madrid’s only goal, earned praise from both the media and Carlo Ancelotti, who described him as the team’s best player on the night.
The Madrid locker room is now fully behind Mbappé, recognizing a significant improvement in his performances. Relevo highlights how tactical adjustments by Ancelotti have helped the Frenchman thrive. By focusing on the left wing rather than roaming the entire attacking line, Mbappé has regained his sharpness, using his speed and dribbling to devastating effect.
His increasing involvement in the game—illustrated by his high number of touches against Barcelona—has made him a vital figure for the team. “Even God can’t stop him with space,” said one teammate, reflecting the growing confidence in the star. Ancelotti, too, is pleased, noting that Mbappé has adapted well to the team and regained his physical form, making him a key asset for the rest of the season.
