Real Madrid identify Kylian Mbappe's key weakness as Carlo Ancelotti & Co. urge blockbuster signing to take responsibility

LaLiga

<p>The Mbappe transfer saga finally ended this summer as Real Madrid completed his signing for free after his Paris Saint-Germain contract ran out. It was one of the most talked-about moves in the last transfer window, however, the Frenchman has yet to live up to Los Blancos' expectations. In 14 matches across all competitions thus far, the France captain has scored eight times and provided two assists.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Per <a href="https://www.relevo.com/futbol/liga-primera/ancelotti-medita-cambios-mbappe-jordan-20241031130234-nt.html" target="_blank"><em>Relevo</em></a>, manager Ancelotti has reportedly identified the player's weakness and has also urged him to take more responsibility in the attack. The Italian coach is worried about the 25-year-old's inability to act once he loses possession of the ball. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/kylian-mbappe-cristiano-ronaldo-record-real-madrid-el-clasico-europe/bltce2805c17f2a3f63" target="_blank">Mbappe had a forgetful outing</a> in El Clasico as he failed to find the back of the net and missed several chances against arch-rivals Barcelona who won 4-0.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Last week, Spanish journalist Romain Molina claimed that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-gutted-signed-kylian-mbappe-journalist-regret-claim-florentino-perez/bltede1e00d5786c3d3" target="_blank">Real Madrid already 'regret' signing the Frenchman</a> from PSG. In an interview, Mollina said, "They regret bringing him in. I guarantee that. I have spoken about it on and off (the record). It hasn’t been at all what they were expecting. It was a whim of [Florentino] Perez. It was only Perez who wanted him."</p>
