The arrival of Kylian Mbappe at Real Madrid this summer was supposed to mark the beginning of a new era for the Spanish giants. With the French superstar joining a squad filled with talents like Vinicius Jr., Jude Bellingham, and Rodrygo, expectations were sky-high.
Mbappe’s debut was a dream start scoring in the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta to secure his first trophy with the club.
Real Madrid unfazed by early struggles of Mbappe
But since that bright start, Mbappe has struggled to find the back of the net in La Liga. Two quiet performances against Mallorca and Real Valladolid have led to criticism from both Spanish and French media raising questions about his impact at the club.
Despite the noise, Real Madrid remains confident in their new star. According to reports from MARCA the club is “more than happy” with Mbappe’s contribution so far.
The 25-year-old’s work ethic and attitude have impressed everyone at the club from the coaching staff to his teammates. There are no concerns about ego clashes with Mbappe fully integrating into the team and showing a willingness to play wherever he’s needed—whether through the centre or on the left flank.

His dedication on and off the pitch has left a positive impression and the club is not letting external criticism affect their plans.
With a match against UD Las Palmas coming up, Mbappe will be eager to open his La Liga account and silence the doubters. Real Madrid are confident that their star signing will soon deliver on the promise that had fans dreaming of a new golden era.
