Real Madrid begins to turn against Mbappé

Spanish journalist Miguel Serrano has revealed discontent within Real Madrid regarding Kylian Mbappé, noting that the club's management did not expect the French star to cause social or media crises related to the club, such as the controversy surrounding the Ceuta shirts.

Serrano explained that the biggest problem, from the perspective of Real Madrid's management, is not only related to Mbappé's media stances, but also to what the management considers a lack of the expected leadership role from the team captain.

Serrano stated that the club sees Mbappé acting as if he is running his "own Mbappé club" within Real Madrid, explaining that the player performs his role on the pitch, but he does not engage to the same extent in the issues concerning the club or in the media discourse adopted by the management when it needs his support.

He added that some officials at Real Madrid interpret Mbappé's avoidance of criticizing refereeing or adopting the club's positions in its crises as an attempt to maintain a positive public image, which may help him gain more votes in the Ballon d'Or race.

According to Serrano, this vision clashes with what the Real Madrid management expects from the team captain, as they believe that a true captain should be present in difficult situations and should align with the same path that the club takes when facing crises or controversial issues.

Spanish journalist reports that Florentino and Real Madrid's management believe Mbappé is focusing heavily on his personal interests, primarily winning the Ballon d'Or, rather than prioritizing his leadership responsibilities and the team's success.
