Ancelotti is unhappy with Mbappe's defensive actions on the field

Real Madrid is concerned about the team's defensive performance following the arrival of Kylian Mbappe.

As Relevo reports, head coach Carlo Ancelotti is concerned about the team's defense, especially the pressing actions. First of all, it concerns the French striker.

In particular, in the match against "Barcelona" (0:4), Mbappe ran 8 kilometers in one match, the least. The indicators for other players exceed 10 kilometers, and some reach 12-13.

Kylian's actions caused other Real Madrid players, primarily midfielder Jude Bellingham, to run more. That is why there is some tension in the team regarding Mbappe's actions. The coaching staff also wants the attacker to understand that he must participate in attack and defense.

Due to Mbappe's actions, Ancelotti is considering redistributing defensive duties between attacking players. One idea is that Vinicius will pressure the centrebacks and the opponent's goalkeeper, while Mbappe will cover the proper back.

The " Real " coach does not want Mbappe's mood to spread to other team players.
