Kylian Mbappé’s start at Real Madrid has been far from smooth, with one of the main issues being his position on the field.
According to the Spanish outlet Sport on Wednesday, the French star is reportedly unhappy playing as a central striker, and coach Carlo Ancelotti is faced with limited options to resolve the situation.
Mbappé prefers to operate from the left wing – where Brazilian teammate Vinícius Júnior currently plays – creating a difficult conflict for the team as neither player can easily be benched.
“Real Madrid’s version of Mbappé isn’t working, and a key reason is the French star’s own performance. His arrival has destabilised the team both offensively and defensively, and Mbappé is reportedly growing tired of playing as a centre-forward.
