Real Madrid has a new pack leader, and Thibaut Courtois says it plainly: Kylian Mbappé has become the leader of the Merengue locker room.
Kylian Mbappé is indeed the new boss of Real Madrid. After a complicated adaptation season, the Frenchman shows a transformed mentality. “This year, we can clearly see his winning mentality. He is our leader,” the Belgian goalkeeper told Cadena COPE.
And the numbers speak for him: 18 goals in 16 matches, the former Parisian is dominating La Liga.
While Mbappé takes control, the club has had to manage another issue: Vinicius’s anger during the Clasico. Furious about being substituted against Barça, the Brazilian sparked debate… but Courtois assures that everything is resolved. Apologies were made, the matter is closed, and the locker room is calm: “We are human, he regretted it, he apologized. No problem.”
Vinicius on the Way Out?
A Real Madrid where Mbappé asserts himself, where Vinicius has been reprimanded… and where the balance of the locker room could be one of the major challenges in the coming months. The Brazilian, who feels his influence waning in the locker room, seems close to leaving.
An offer from Saudi Arabia is reportedly on the table, and Real Madrid would not say no to a sale in the coming months.
