Real Madrid Players’ Muted Response Regarding Mbappé at Vallecas: All Prearranged

In Vallecas, Real Madrid Players Kept Silent on Mbappé.

The Real Madrid locker room had clear directives regarding the Mbappé situation. Total silence in the mixed zone. Not a single player stepped forward.

After the draw, Madrid chose not to expose any player to questions which, for the most part, would have revolved around Mbappé’s signing or linked to the future of the Frenchman as announced in France.

Hence, the decision was made to stifle any hint of questioning about the French forward and spare players from that ‘torture’ which Ancelotti already experienced in the pre-match press conference… and had to confront afterwards as well.

An attempt was made to catch Ancelotti off guard, knowing that it was an important issue, especially after the 1-1 draw in Vallecas, and the Italian coach handled the question very well. “When haven’t we been focused? Things haven’t gone so well, but reproaching something to this team this season is much more complicated,” he pointed out.

Decision The locker room is sealed off and no one appeared in the mixed zone to avoid those same echoes about the resounding saga of the French star from PSG, still aiming to play for Real Madrid.

Ancelotti acts as a ‘shield’ and protects his players from any reprisals. The Italian coach avoided questions and already made clear the line to follow when asked about Kylian. The draw was the perfect ‘excuse’ to quickly disappear from Vallecas.
