The relationship between Carlo Ancelotti and Kylian Mbappé seems to have reached a critical point. The Italian coach does not hide his dissatisfaction with the performance of the French forward, who joined the team with the tag of a stellar signing last summer. Despite his 9 goals and 2 assists in 18 games, Mbappé's impact has not been as expected, leaving Ancelotti questioning the decision to incorporate him into the project.

Real Madrid's strategist faces a challenging scenario as the team's collective performance has fallen short of expectations, and Mbappé's presence has not been able to make a difference. Beyond his statistics, his lack of contribution in defensive tasks and limited influence as a leader on the field have generated frustration in the coach, who prioritized building a balanced and competitive team. This was confirmed against Liverpool, where he couldn't lead in Vinícius' absence due to injury.

Ancelotti struggles to fit Mbappé in

Criticism towards the French forward is immediate from the club environment, as his arrival not only involved a significant outlay but also tactical adjustments that have affected the group's cohesion. Ancelotti, whose continuity could depend on turning things around in the coming months, believes that Mbappé's signing has complicated the implementation of his footballing vision.

The pressure intensifies for both key figures: Mbappé must prove he can meet the high expectations and be decisive in crucial moments, while Ancelotti needs to regain the team's solidity to secure his future on the bench. Undoubtedly, the situation will mark a turning point in a season that promises more challenges than anticipated for the white giant.
