The Real Madrid superstar, Kylian Mbappé, has established itself as the undisputed number one of the Santiago Bernabéu, dethroning Vinicius Junior as an offensive leader.
It seems obvious that coach Xabi Alonso shares this feeling, having replaced Vinicius Junior by Rodrygo Goes in the second match, while the Frenchman played almost all of the first three games.
This confidence was rewarded by three goals, and in the only match where he did not score, Mbappé saw two goals refused just for offside. As a result of a lively and committed look, Alonso seems to have made him a first positive impression.
Xabi Alonso is “a guy who wants to succeed”.
During an interview with the German newspaper Bild, Mbappé explained that Alonso's experience in Santiago Bernabéu was beneficial to him.
“I had an excellent impression of him. We see a guy who wants to succeed. He knows the club perfectly for having played Real Madrid himself ”, said Marca. The objectives of this season were clearly defined as ” win trophies ”.
“We must continue to work, we must persevere, because we know how difficult it is to win trophies.
