Kylian Mbappe
Real Madrid finds itself in a precarious position due to a decline in performance, raising concerns among players and staff alike.
Read full articleThe anticipated impact of Kylian Mbappe's arrival has not materialized as expected, leading to ongoing discussions about the compatibility of both Mbappe and Vinicius Junior on the field.
Mbappe has been deployed in a more central role this season, which he is not particularly fond of, while Vinicius has had to abandon his favored left flank. This adjustment has been viewed as a compromise, as Vinicius struggles to perform effectively in central or right positions.
Recent reports indicate that if a choice must be made between the two players, Real Madrid President Florentino Perez would favor Mbappe.
Manu Carreno from Cadena SER has reinforced this notion, suggesting that the club's strategy is centered around Mbappe, leaving Vinicius's future uncertain.
This development may not sit well with the team, as Vinicius has been instrumental in their achievements over the past three years and was arguably their standout player last season.
Meanwhile, Mbappe's integration has been rocky, leading to growing frustration among his teammates.
