Carlo Ancelotti Addresses Rumors About Kylian Mbappé’s Mental Health Issues

Carlo Ancelotti has spoken out against rumors suggesting Kylian Mbappé is struggling with mental health issues, criticizing those in the media who perpetuate such claims. The Real Madrid coach stated that he sees Mbappé as happy at the club and expressed his distaste for speculation on this topic.

Quote. "I don’t see it that way; I see him happy and content to be here. Speculating about this seems highly unpleasant to me. Every forward goes through a rough patch.

I see him motivated and happy to train with his teammates. The streak will end sooner or later. Tomorrow, he’ll have a great match because it’s just a matter of time. He has incredible qualities, and sooner or later, he’ll show them," said Ancelotti.
