Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has identified Kylian Mbappe as the team’s biggest problem.
Ancelotti believed that Mbappe is behind their current struggle for form.The France captain arrived in Spain this summer on a free agent, after leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of his career.
However, life in Madrid has been far from smooth for Mbappe, whose arrival has coincided with Los Blancos struggling to mount convincing defences of both their LaLiga and European triumphs.During their recent 4-0 humiliation in the hands of Barcelona in El Clasico, Mbappe left fans frustrated with his finishing and tendency to stray offside during the match.
The 25-year-old’s preference to be deployed as a central striker has also forced Jude Bellingham into a deeper lying midfield role with the Englishman yet to score this season after a previous breakthrough campaign at the Santiago Bernabeu.
