Former Real Madrid star, Luis Figo knows Kylian Mbappé's situation well. The Portuguese knows how difficult it is to adapt to the Merengue. But according to him, the French striker will eventually return to his best level.
Could Kylian Mbappé finally be on the right track? Widely supported, the Real Madrid striker has scored in the last two matches played. An encouraging dynamic for the Frenchman whose reasons for satisfaction have been rare since his signing this summer. In great difficulty for his debut, the former Paris Saint-Germain player was not spared from criticism. Hence the enormous pressure on his shoulders at each appearance. These high expectations are also responsible for his bad luck, testifies Luis Figo, well placed to comment on the situation of the flagship recruit.
Mbappé in difficulty at Real, it's almost over
« I experienced the pressurethe former Merengue told the daily El Mundo. People want things to happen quickly but you have to give time. You change country, team and there is an adaptation. There are people who integrate more quickly. It depends on many factors. And logically, it's not the same to play in any team compared to Real Madrid. Very often the pressure does not allow you to show your qualities and many players arrive at Real Madrid and fail to express their talent. But in general, great players like Kylian Mbappé demonstrate their strength sooner or later. »
Confident for the French international, Luis Figo still gave him some advice. “ It's always better to behave well. But when it comes to the game, it is always more important that everyone knows their role and what they have to bring to the team. Because in the end, egos can destroy you in terms of atmosphere, team and results. The most important thing is that everyone, with their qualities, knows their space and what they must sacrifice for the team », explained the Portuguese, aware that the complementarity between the stars of Real Madrid is not yet obvious.
