While Kylian Mbappé is having a mixed start to the season with Real Madrid, Jude Bellingham defended his partner on Tuesday November 26, 2024.
It was at a press conference, on the eve of the match between Real Madrid and Liverpool in the Champions League.
“He is one of the best players of his generation”particularly highlighted the English environment.
“I arrived last summer when the club lost one of the greatest scorers of his era in Karim Benzema… This year we signed one of the best players of this generation (Kylian Mbappé).
He’s scored an incredible number of goals so it’s obvious we expect him to do the same for us.”declared Jude Bellingham, who saw his role turned upside down by the arrival of Kylian Mbappé.
In the absence of Brazilians Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, the Frenchman will have the heavy task of carrying the Madrid attack on his shoulders.
The former Parisian, who is struggling to get out of a complicated period on and off the field, will indeed be eagerly awaited on Wednesday while Real, the reigning European champion, is obliged to bring back a result of ‘Anfield, after two defeats in four days.
Ancelotti raises his voice on the management of Vinicius
Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti, looking for solutions with a full infirmary (Vinicius, Rodrygo, Carvajal, Militao, Tchouaméni, etc.), brushed aside the criticism at a press conference.
“I listen to advice a lot, but I have coached 1,300 matches in my career, I have fielded 1,300 team compositions and I have made almost 4,000 changes. So no one here can give me advice.” he asserted.
