Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé, who scored a hat-trick in the Champions League match against Kairat, expressed frustration with his teammate Vinicius Junior’s playing style.
Details: As reported by El Nacional, Mbappé approached coach Xabi Alonso about what he sees as Vinicius’s excessive focus on individual play. He feels that Vinicius is prioritizing personal effort over teamwork, often bypassing opportunities to pass the ball.
Mbappé urged the coach to talk to Vinicius and emphasized the need for more collaborative play. He also suggested that he would prefer to partner with more team-focused players like Brahim Díaz or Rodrygo.
This season, Vinicius has appeared in 9 matches, scoring three goals and making three assists.
Reminder: Manchester City is also pursuing Michael Olise, competing with Real Madrid for his services.
