Did Mbappe Say "No" To Real Madrid?

JAKARTA - Kylian Mbappe didn't seem so happy during the first few months of the season with PSG. Through a small movement, he revealed.

The French star, who fans beat when he announced at the end of last season that he would stay at Paris Saint-Germain, did not reap the result of his decision to reject Real Madrid.

He barely smiled and looked annoyed. In fact, the current statistics are far from last season, when he was the real team engine.

Mbappe has stopped being a key figure at PSG, and through small messages, he blamed the position coach Christophe Galtier asked for.

The latest incident occurred last Saturday, after his team drew in Reims he posted a message on social media. Although its contents are not too dangerous, he accompanies it with the hashtag "pivot-gang".

By doing that, Mbappe once again paid attention to the little love he had for the No. 9 position he played at PSG, which took him away from full-backs, where his strength and speed, he believes, made him even more dangerous.

His covert complaint was related to a statement he made a few weeks ago when he was with the French national team. He said Didier Deschamps gave him more freedom.

A different thing was asked from me here rather than at club level. I have a lot of freedom here," Mbappe was quoted as saying by Marca.

The coach knew that there was No. 9 like Olivier [Giroud] who interfered with the cloud defense and I was able to find space, ask for the ball. In Paris, that didn't happen, they asked me to play as the axis, that's different," Mbappe said on September 22.

Against Reims, Galtier put him on the wing after half an hour of playing and, after a long exchange between the two, the player shifted forward to attack while shaking his head.

The 2018 World Cup winner had to give up his favorite position, left side of the attack, for Neymar. But now he's also not playing on the right.

L'Equipe claims the club promised Mbappe that they would sign a quality 'No. 9', something that hasn't happened yet.

The selected player is Robert Lewandowski from Poland, but the former Bayern Munich player prefers to join Barcelona.

Luis Campos, in charge of the transfer strategy at PSG, admitted that he had not met the target.

"We promise (Mbappe) to build a great team... with the '9' that we haven't brought yet," Campos told radio RMC last month.

Delayed by injury, which caused him to miss several games at the start of the season, Mbappe looked unhappy.

However, the club has played down the importance of the look of dislike shown so far.

According to Le Parisien, the goal is to turn this malaise into positive energy, and encourage it to once again be the best.
