In front of the press after Real Madrid’s 4-2 victory over Sevilla, Kylian Mbappé made a heartfelt confession about his resurgence in form. According to the French forward, his adaptation period is over…

Named Man of the Match for this 18th round of La Liga on Sunday, Kylian Mbappé ends 2024 on a high note. After scoring a stunning goal in the 10th minute, the former PSG player provided an assist for Brahim Diaz, who netted his first goal of the season. Once again decisive, the 26-year-old forward continues to deliver stellar performances. Speaking to Real Madrid’s official channel after the match against Sevilla, Mbappé confirmed Carlo Ancelotti’s remarks from Saturday evening, stating that his adjustment period is now behind him.

“I hit rock bottom after the match in Bilbao”

Kylian Mbappé's unexpected reaction after Sevilla: "I hit rock bottom after…"

For the player, who now has 14 goals in 24 matches, things are going extremely well. “Madridistas will be delighted with today’s match, and so are we. We know each other better now, and the adaptation is already over. I feel great. Fede and I scored two superb goals, just like we do in Valdebebas,” said the France national team captain.

During a challenging period between September and October, Kylian Mbappé admitted to having struggled mentally at times, particularly after missing two penalties, one against Liverpool and another against Athletic Bilbao. “I hit rock bottom after the match in Bilbao. I missed a penalty, and it took me some time to realise what it meant. I have to give everything, all I have, for this jersey and do my best,” Mbappé revealed, before promising to push even harder for the rest of the season. “I know I can do much more. I’ve got the legs for it.”

One thing is certain: KM9’s message has been received. With unwavering support from Carlo Ancelotti and the Madrid faithful, we can expect to see a fiery Mbappé from January 3 onwards (when Real Madrid face Valencia in their rescheduled match).
