Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
Did Kylian Mbappé make the right choice by joining Real Madrid? The debate is open and provokes reactions from many actors in Europe. The latest to give his opinion is Troy Deeney, former member of Birmingham and Watford. According to him, the Spanish club made a big mistake by giving carte blanche to the former PSG star.
His career ideal turns into a long ordeal. Kylian Mbappé made his childhood dream come true by signing for Real Madrid this summer. But his beginnings were missed. Spanish fans expected a lot from this star, presented in a stadium Santiago Bernabeu sold out and in front of an audience of legends. Some observers of Spanish football also expected a perfect marriage between the two parties. This is the case of Troy Deeneyformerly of Birmingham and of Watford.
“We expect him to score a lot of goals”
« This is probably not at all what we all expected. Personally, I thought when they got him he was the missing piece, much like when [Manchester] City got [Erling] Haaland. We expect him to score a lot of goals and that they [le Real] are more or less unstoppable » confided Troy Deeneyvisibly disappointed with the contribution of Mbappé.
Mbappé does not find his place
Pour Deeney, the main problem also lies in its positioning. Used at number 9, Mbappé does not present the necessary profile to make a difference. “ I don't think he's a natural striker, I know it sounds mental. He can't [jouer sur l’aile gauche] because Vini Jr is there, so in this situation it's a huge mistake from Real Madrid. They opted for a name that sells shirts and the brand rather than what makes them win.” the former striker told Talk Sport.
