Coach Carlo Ancelotti stated on Wednesday that Kylian Mbappe, a French football sensation, has been trying hard to get back to his former self, despite his struggles to meet the performance standards that were anticipated when he signed with Real Madrid.
Mbappe missed another penalty chance in Real Madrid’s Champions League loss to Liverpool last week, and the La Liga champions lost 2-1 against Athletic Bilbao on Wednesday.
Real Madrid’s fourth defeat in the previous seven games across all competitions was the result of yet another poor showing by Mbappe, 25, which further cast doubt on their form with the France captain in the public eye.
