While Kylian Mbappé is suffering at Real Madrid, Zinedine Zidane would not be the best person to help the French striker…
Kylian Mbappé raised his head. At the bottom of the hole, Wednesday, after the defeat conceded on the lawn of Liverpool (2-0) and a calamitous performance, the Madrid striker indeed delivered a completely different performance, Sunday, against Getafe (2-0). Although he showed a certain lack of efficiency, particularly in the second half, the French world champion found the net again and was even elected man of the match.
However, the Bondynois is not out of the woods. The Frenchman's mental state is worrying and some do not hesitate to assert that he is purely and simply suffering from depression and that he needs to open up about his difficulties. Real Madrid would be of this opinion and in addition to mental health specialists, the Merengue club would have asked Zinedine Zidane to come to the aid of Kylian Mbappé.
Thierry Henry, a better profile for Zinedine Zidane
The Madrid leaders would be convinced of the ability of their former player and coach to find the right words to revive the former Parisian. Not only because of the links between the two men but also because of ZZ's own personal experience in Madrid, the 1998 Ballon d'Or having himself experienced difficulties upon his arrival.
But according to Kevin Diaz, Zinedine Zidane would not be the right person. “ External help, I wouldn't ask Zidane. For me, Mbappé, the one from whom he can draw inspiration, is Thierry Henry. It has the same characteristics. Speed, trained in the same place, go through Clairefontaine, an intelligent player, he confided to the microphone of RMC, adding about the former Gunner: “A player comfortable on the left side of the attack, who finished as a center forward. Who knew how to reinvent himself, leave his favorite club: Arsenal, to become a collective player at Barça, in a club bigger than him and who finished his career in the USA in a good way. »
