After Real Madrid’s big victory against Osasuna this Saturday (4-0), Carlo Ancelotti and Luka Modric had comforting words for Kylian Mbappé, who has not scored since October 19.
Kylian Mbappé once again experienced a difficult afternoon this Saturday, during the Osasuna reception. If Real Madrid wandered at home (4-0), the French striker still did not score, unlike Vinicius (treble) and Jude Bellingham. Placed at the forefront, the Habs seemed borrowed in the first period, before showing themselves to be more dynamic: they increased the number of hooks and often exchanged positions with Vinicius who initially occupied the left wing.
“He tried, he made some good combinations. Like I said, he didn’t score in the last few games, but he was always there. He will definitely start scoring again. The important thing it’s that he participated in the attack. Today Vini scored, Bellingham too, in the next match, it could be him,” said Carlo Ancelotti in a press conference about his number 9.

“We are all together with him”
The French international also received the support of his teammate Luka Modric: “We know the player he is. He is one of the best players in the world. We know that the goals will eventually come. We have confidence. We are all together with him,” said the Croatian in the mixed zone.
Author of eight goals in his first 15 matches with the Madrilenians, Kylian Mbappé has not scored since October 19 during a 2-1 success on the pitch of Celta de Vigo. Not called up in October with the France team, the captain of the Blues will also miss the next two matches against Israel and Italy. A decision carefully considered by Didier Deschamps.
