Two months ago, Cristiano Ronaldo made remarks that were, to say the least, prescient about Kylian Mbappé.
Kylian Mbappé certainly did not imagine being in so much difficulty for his debut with Real Madrid. Clumsy in front of goal, too little influence in the game and lacking confidence, the captain of the Blues has delivered a disappointing copy on the pitch of Athletic Bilbao on Wednesday evening in La Liga (2-1 defeat of the Merengue). Like against Liverpool last week,
the former Parisian missed a penalty which could have changed the course of the match.
In the eye of the storm,
Kylian Mbappé was not spared by the Spanish press on Thursday morning. A difficult situation for the 2018 world champion, but one that was possible. Indeed, last September, Cristinao Ronaldo spoke about the arrival of “Kyk’s” at the White House. And the Portuguese star then gave a speech that was prescient to say the least.
“Real Madrid is not PSG”
« Let's wait and see if everything is clear in his head and if he can handle this pressure. Because Real Madrid is not PSG. I can tell you. Mbappé went there, but who can say that Madrid will become better or… We don’t know, we’ll see “, launched the five-time Ballon d'Or during an interview with Rio Ferdinand, the video of which was again relayed by the daily AS.
“Madrid will remain strong, but I don't know if they will be better than last year, announced the Portuguese, Mbappé's youth idol. I don't know anything about it. Only God knows. But they have fantastic players and team. » Ronaldo was therefore not mistaken in remaining measured about the arrival of Mbappé at Real.
