Former France international Christophe Dugarry has delivered a scathing assessment of Kylian Mbappe, following the Real Madrid star's recent comments regarding his individual accolades. The 1998 World Cup winner believes the forward's public pursuit of personal glory undermines his responsibilities as a leader for both club and country.
Kylian Mbappe has insisted it is only natural that he is being discussed as a leading candidate for the Ballon d'Or following his historic exploits at the World Cup this summer. Speaking ahead of Real Madrid's Champions League opener against Inter Milan, the French captain admitted that the prestige of playing for the Spanish giants makes the conversation around individual accolades unavoidable.
Real Madrid suffered a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Real Betis after Kylian Mbappe missed a crucial penalty. Betis defender Marc Bartra has since revealed the clever tactical secret behind his decisive clearance following the save, admitting he consulted a former referee to exploit the encroachment rules.
