Former Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has opened up about his relationship with Kylian Mbappé.
In a recent interview with L'Equipe, Carlo Ancelotti reflected on his one-year collaboration with Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid. "During that year, Mbappé never asked me for anything—not to take penalties, not to play, not to sit out, not to take free kicks... Nothing. He always behaved impeccably, with great humility. And he delivered a truly world-class season on a personal level, scoring 44 goals. I believe his second season will be even better because he's now adapted and his teammates know him well," said the Italian tactician.
Ancelotti also discussed the positioning of the captain of the French national team."In my view, Mbappé is a centre-forward. That's where he showcases his best qualities. He's quick, technical, clinical, capable of lightning-fast combinations in tight spaces. So he needs to be close to goal. On the wing, he'll still have the same qualities, of course, but I think he'll score less. The intensity in football has increased even more in recent seasons, and the physical demands on those who play out wide are much higher than just a few years ago. There's always more effort required from wide players. For Mbappé, it's therefore better to be at the tip of the attack." he added.
