Mbappe says mental shift helped change his Real Madrid ‘situation’

Al Jazeera  

French superstar has silenced his doubters in recent weeks after struggling to settle in with the Spanish giants. Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe believes a shift in mentality has helped him improve his “situation” in the Spanish capital after his initial struggles following a dream move from Paris Saint-Germain. “You always have to be calm and focus on your game and what you can improve,” Mbappe told a news conference on Tuesday ahead of Madrid’s Champions League clash with RB Salzburg. “Now it’s all changed, and I have to continue, because playing well for a month is good, but it’s easy.” During his spell of poor form and while struggling with a thigh problem, Mbappe was left out of several France squads for Nations League games in the final months of last year. “My love for the national team has not changed.” ‘Adaptation period is over’ Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has been patient with Mbappe, often defending the forward and insisting he needed time to adapt to life in the Spanish capital and gel with his new teammates.
