Real Madrid Ready to Make Drastic Decision on Kylian Mbappé
Kylian Mbappé’s start at Real Madrid has had its fair share of challenges. Although he’s posted solid numbers—eight goals and two assists in 15 appearances—he’s still adjusting to his new team’s style of play.
His debut in El Clásico was particularly disappointing, as Real Madrid were thrashed 4-0 by Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabéu on October 26. The struggles continued on Tuesday, with a 3-1 loss to AC Milan in the UEFA Champions League.
That defeat marked Madrid’s second consecutive home loss, with a combined 7-1 scoreline in those games. Throughout both matches, Mbappé, PSG’s all-time top scorer, struggled to make a notable impact.
Is Real Madrid set to satisfy Kylian Mbappé?
SPORT reports that Real Madrid is ready to prioritize Kylian Mbappé over Vinicius, with plans to play him on the left wing. The club’s sporting project is set to revolve around Mbappé rather than Vinicius.

This news may prompt some teams to keep a closer watch on the situation. Journalist Jorge C. Picon has reported that PSG could consider pursuing Vinicius Junior if the right opportunity arises, potentially making a bold move to challenge Florentino Pérez and Real Madrid.
Reports from Spain also suggest that Manchester United and Chelsea are keeping an eye on his status and could act if the opportunity presents itself.
