WHAT HAPPENED?
The French attacker continues to dominate the headlines with his impressive form for Madrid. He scored 31 goals and provided six assists in just 35 matches this season, but he does not have his eyes set on winning the prestigious Ballon d’Or award. He is instead focused on helping the club win more trophies.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Kylian Mbappé has indeed displayed remarkable performances since joining Real Madrid. While Mbappé has not won the Ballon d’Or previously, his current focus is on aiding Carlo Ancelotti’s side in their quest to capture the Champions League and La Liga titles. His ability to perform under pressure has been instrumental for the club in crucial matches, including his decisive contributions in both domestic and European competitions.
WHAT NEXT?
Mbappé will be seen in action on Wednesday when Real Madrid face Arsenal in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie. The match will be held at the Emirates Stadium, with the return leg scheduled to take place at the Santiago Bernabéu in the following week.
For La Liga, where Real Madrid lost at home over the weekend against Valencia after a 17 years drought, has increased the distance from Los Blancos to Barcelona in La Liga to 4 points, with 8 matches left to play in the season.
Despite a slower start, Mbappe has picked up pace in the last few weeks and will be essential for Real Madrid’s ambitions until the end of the season, where they will also play Barcelona for the Copa del Rey Final.
