Mbappé Reveals How Ronaldo Guided Him Through a Tough First Year at Real Madrid
Kylian Mbappé has opened up about the bond he shares with Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid. He described Ronaldo as a friend and mentor who supported him throughout a challenging debut season at the Santiago Bernabéu. Despite Mbappé’s respectable goal tally, fans have criticized his impact on the team and even called for his exit as Real Madrid nears a second consecutive trophyless campaign. Critics say the club’s work ethic dipped after his high-profile free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain. In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Mbappé recalled idolizing Ronaldo as a child and thanked him for guidance during that first year. With the French star currently sidelined by injury, he is now eyeing a return to lead France at the 2026 World Cup in North America.
