While Mbappé is going through a difficult period at Real Madrid, a former French international evokes a troubling track.
Since his arrival at Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé seems to be dragging his spleen. However, everything started ideally for the French striker, who scored his first goal in the Madrid jersey against Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup (2-0) in August. But two months later, and despite a record of 7 goals in 11 matches, the situation has visibly changed.
At the forefront of the attack, the Bondynois is having difficulty fully integrating into the Madrid collective. Decisive only three times in his last nine appearances, he struggles to display the extent of his talent. His performance during the defeat against Liverpool (2-0) this Wednesday in the Champions League further eroded the credit enjoyed by the captain of the Blues among observers.
The Pogba affair resurfaces
While the Spanish media did not fail to heavily criticize the copy of Mbappé, author of a missed penalty, on the French side, concern continues to grow regarding the state of form of the 2018 world champion Among the voices that are raised, that of Emmanuel Petit does not go unnoticed. The former Blues midfielder goes so far as to evoke a hypothesis that is surprising to say the least: what if Kylian Mbappé had been the victim of maraboutage? A direct allusion to the Paul Pogba affair, which broke out in August 2022, revealing that the French midfielder had been the victim of blackmail, with accusations implicating him in an alleged attempt to harm Mbappé through a marabout.
“I think he was really abused. I believe in these things. You don't believe it. I say it because I accept it. I believe in it, there are quite a few things in which I believe. Westerners don't believe in it, it's not in their culture, we are very Cartesian. I believe in it. You get the answer when you ask the question. Pogba? I don’t know, everyone tells me that”declared the former Arsenal legend and 98 world champion on RMC.
