Real Madrid striker Kylian Mbappe says his poor start to life at the club was due to his mentality.
Recall that Mbappe joined Real Madrid on a free transfer last June after leaving Paris St-Germain but was ridiculed by fans for his poor form in front of goal and performances where he seemed to disappear in crucial moments.
Speaking with the club’s website, Mbappe stated that he has to fight hard to overcome it.

“I believe it was a mentality issue, and that was a point I realized that I had to work harder,” said Mbappe.
“I was thinking too much about how to do things. Whether to go into space, whether to go to Vini’s (Vinicius Jr’s) area of the pitch, to Rodrygo’s area. When you overthink, you don’t focus on your game.
“I was fine physically and with the group but I knew I had to do more, that was the time to change the situation.
“I couldn’t do any worse, so when you hit rock bottom you can only go up.”
