Real Madrid: Vinicius admits to harassing Kylian Mbappe
A goalscorer against Pachuca, Kylian Mbappe secured his second title of the season with Real Madrid and, most importantly, seems to have regained some of his form. Vinicius Jr spoke about Mbappe‘s presence in Spain.
A return to Qatar was the perfect setting to witness the resurgence of a great Kylian Mbappe. The French forward showed clear signs of improvement during his team’s 3-0 victory over the Mexican side Pachuca in the Copa Libertadores. While the trophy was nearly handed over, requiring just one match to win against a clearly weaker opponent, the result stands, and more importantly, confidence is returning. This was in large part due to Vinicius Junior, who played a crucial role in assisting the former PSG player’s opening goal, doing everything possible to help Mbappe regain his rhythm. Contrary to the image sometimes portrayed by the Spanish press of stars not getting along and Mbappe not being welcomed at Real Madrid, the Brazilian insists that everything is working smoothly. He even revealed that he was among the players who advocated for the Frenchman’s arrival, despite Mbappe playing in his position.
“I’m truly a huge fan of Kylian Mbappé. I sent him a lot of messages asking him to sign for Real Madrid because I’ve always dreamed of playing alongside him. He’s a great player,” explained the recent winner of the The Brest trophy outside the Lusail Stadium. These comforting words come after a solid victory and a new title, although everyone is eagerly waiting to see this duo shine in the Champions League during the big matches.
