Hours after Kylian Mbappé’s outburst against Arda Güler at Villarreal, a famous TikTok video creator with a million followers raised the possibility of existing tension between the two Madrid players.
The Turkish community has been up in arms since Saturday evening. Already concerned about their protégé Arda Güler, who is no longer playing for Real Madrid, the Turks are struggling to digest Kylian Mbappé’s outburst towards their compatriot during the 28th matchday of La Liga. Indeed, after coming on for just over ten minutes, the young attacking midfielder made a poor shot in the 87th minute. Although he could have passed to his French attacking partner, who was well-positioned and waiting for the ball to complete his hat-trick, Güler chose to take a shot himself.
KM9’s outburst towards Güler
While several understand the reactions of the two players, notably Kylian, who was frustrated for not being passed to, and Arda Güler, who took his chance in an attempt to prove he has the guts to make an impact in a team where places are scarce, the Turks are particularly upset with the French forward. On social media, hundreds have expressed their disapproval of KM9’s haughty behaviour towards the 20-year-old midfielder. With video captures, Güler’s compatriots expose the French star as arrogant, despite the fact that he was defended and supported at the start of his journey at Real, where he was sometimes deprived of good passes by Vini and Bellingham.
Let’s recall that during the difficult moments of the Bondy-born player’s time at Madrid, when he missed two crucial penalties for Real, Arda Güler showed his support with a post. And when he eventually found the back of the net, the former Fenerbahçe player was one of the happiest Madrid players. On Saturday, Mbappé perhaps should not have reacted so excessively to his young teammate, who, let’s face it, made a poor decision by shooting.
Is there a crisis between Ancelotti’s two players?
However, when you know that it was through being a bit selfish that Endrick scored some fantastic goals with Real and caught Carlo Ancelotti’s attention, one can understand Arda Güler’s decision, as he likely wanted to take advantage of the little time he had to make an impact. On TikTok, a video creator highlighted that there has been a bit of tension between Mbappé and Arda Güler recently. In an image, Kylian, after refusing to pass the ball to his young teammate who was well-positioned, was ignored by Güler when celebrating his goal.
Completely uninterested in KM9, who was being congratulated by all his teammates at the time of his goal, Arda Güler chose to return alone to the Madrid camp. In football, this type of situation is not rare among players.
Each one trying to carve a path towards their personal goals ends up making decisions that lead to discord. Carlo Ancelotti will need to address this issue and defuse the crisis if there is indeed tension between the two players. Given the situation, it is clear that Güler may decide to leave at the end of the season to find more playing time.
