Kylian Mbappe Loses Real Madrid's Trust? Los Blancos' Big Message On Striker's Flop La Liga Debut
While a two-match goal drought is not taken seriously otherwise, however, Kylian Mbappe's case is different and his each performance will go under scanner.
Real Madrid's long-standing pursuit of French striker Kylian Mbappe finally came to an end this summer as the player agreed terms with the club. Mbappe made his debut in the white in the Super Cup final against Atalanta and made it a memorable first showing by getting to the score sheet in the 2-0 win. Following that, Mbappe made his La Liga debut and thus began the 2-match quiet run. The captain of the France national team failed to score both against Mallorca and Valladolid, which was also his first outing at the iconic Santiago Bernabeu.
