France captain Kylian Mbappe has put a difficult period behind him and is completely focused on his upcoming international duties. Real Madrid team-mate Ibrahima Konate insists the forward has bounced back strongly from his recent Ballon d'Or disappointment and the intense backlash over controversial comments in China.
When the day comes for Kylian Mbappe to leave Madrid the French forward “will go to Liverpool”, Youssouf Mulumbu has told GOAL, with a retracing of steps to Paris Saint-Germain being ruled out. The World Cup winner is going nowhere any time soon, as he remains under contract in Spain, but may be tempted by a Premier League challenge at some point.
Marc Cucurella has offered a glowing defence of Pablo Maffeo following a highly controversial clash between Valencia and Real Madrid at Mestalla. The Spanish international admitted he shares a similar fiery temperament to his compatriot, insisting that whatever happens on the pitch stays there.
