“The best Real Madrid player at the moment”: Kylian Mbappé defended by his president Florentino Perez

Don’t count on him to push his player. In the midst of a storm at Real Madrid, the target of criticism from many supporters, Kylian Mbappé was able to appreciate the support of an important man: its president Florentino Perez. In an interview with La Sexta, the Merengues boss defended the performances of his star striker, nevertheless emphasizing that there were “things to improve”.

“Mbappé is the best player at Real Madrid at the moment,” said the president, who announced on Tuesday the holding of new elections to take the helm of the club. He won the Golden Boot, it’s not like he didn’t score goals. Indeed, there are things to improve but I am not going to dwell on that. »

“How many goals has he scored this year? »

Despite everything, the captain of the Blues did not allow his club to win any title this season. An anomaly for Real Madrid, which logically does not please Florentino Perez. “This year didn’t go the way we wanted, but we also did good things,” he said despite everything. The origin of everything is the Club World Cup. We failed to recover physically. Finishing second… So Atlético, what should they do? And the others? »

The Madrid president believes in any case that this assessment is not linked to Kylian Mbappé’s performance. On the contrary, with 41 goals, he is one of the satisfactions. “How many goals has he scored this year? He scored a lot of goals last season and this year. Maybe there are others who score less. But it’s not for me to judge. An analysis of the workforce must be carried out by the people responsible for it. » What to announce a shake-up of the workforce this summer?
