The arrival of the French attacker Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid He has revolutionized the world of football, since for a long time it was thought that the Parisian would never make it to the White House.
The reigning European champions want to dominate all competitions, and the arrival of the former Paris Saint-Germain player could give them the long-awaited sextet that only FC Barcelona (2009) and Bayern Munich (2020) have.
However, in Spain doubts began to arise over Kylian’s place in the star-studded Real Madrid squad. Brazilians Vinícius, Rodrygo and Endrick are the ones in danger of being a starter, but for the coach Charles Ancelotti Everything has a solution.
The Italian coach appeared on the podcast “The Obi One” of the former Nigerian footballer, John Obi Mikelwhere the Madrid plan for the 2024-2025 season, which is about to begin, was discussed.
Mbappé’s place at Real Madrid
“When you think about placing Kylian in the team, where do you see him?” was the question asked by the former Chelsea player to the man who was his coach in England from 2009 to 2011.
“I see him playing up front, as a striker. The pitch is big and we have to cover as much space as possible,” commented the experienced Italian coach.

“It’s difficult to define the positions of my players. In the case of Vinícius, despite the fact that he almost always started on the left, the important thing is the mobility of the players,” said Ancelotti.
“There will be games where Mbappé will play on the left and sometimes in the centre, just like Bellingham, who will occasionally move to the right wing,” concluded the Real Madrid coach.
