Ancelotti Speaks On Mbappe’s Problem

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said on Saturday that Kylian Mbappé’s struggles this season can be attributed to the overall inconsistency of the team.

The French striker, who joined Madrid this summer after leaving Paris Saint-Germain, missed a penalty during Wednesday’s 3-1 defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League—Real’s third loss in their last five group-stage matches.

Mbappé, who has scored only two goals in his last nine appearances for the club, has faced criticism for his recent performances.

Ancelotti pointed out that the team’s lack of cohesion and form has contributed to the forward’s difficulties.

“Mbappe’s problem is the problem that we all have. The idea is to try to give our best version, not just of him but myself, other players,” Ancelotti told a news conference ahead of Sunday’s La Liga clash against Getafe.
