Real Madrid Confidencial Ancelotti Went for Mbappé in the San Mamés Locker Room, Face to Face:
The Italian coach has had a private chat with the French footballer
Bad feelings have returned to Real Madrid after the defeat against Athletic Club de Bilbao. Kylian Mbappé , as has happened several times this season, is one of the most singled out: he missed a penalty again.
That circumstance prevented Real Madrid from drawing the match , something that ended up affecting Carlo Ancelotti 's men. Despite the setback of not earning any points from their visit to San Mamés, the Italian coach is clear that the situation can be turned around .
This was made clear in his technical talk . But he also took advantage of an ideal moment to speak face to face with Kylian Mbappé: the '9' is not able to rediscover his best version since he arrived at the white club. The words at the Bilbao airport are a very clear sentence.
Because Carlo Ancelotti asked his striker to "stay calm, keep working and not read the press." These three pieces of advice from Reggiolo's boss to Bondy's striker are the basic guidelines to prevent him from deepening his bad moment in soccer and mentally.
In the Air
It doesn't seem like the coaching staff has found a solution to this major problem . Kylian Mbappé's poor performance so far this season has sparked a lot of comment ... and the almost unconditional support of Real Madrid fans , as could be seen during the match against Getafe.
Whatever the case, the dilemma surrounding Real Madrid's new '9' will continue for a few more games. Carlo Ancelotti knows that there's much more at stake than just a few titles during the month of December: the defeats against Athletic Club and Liverpool have also put him in the firing line .
The rumors about the possible arrival of Xabi Alonso add to the preparation that Santiago Solari has been making for some time as interim coach . The continuity of Carlo Ancelotti for next season, his last as the Whites' coach, is far from guaranteed .
Especially if the team's poor competitive rhythm extends until spring 2025. Real Madrid's chances of winning titles are still tangible , but defeats like the one suffered at San Mamés reduce their chances and make it difficult to achieve further sporting successes .
