Carlo Ancelotti, upset by questions about Mbappé's trip to Sweden

Real Madrid will visit Celta de Vigo this Saturday (9:00 p.m. CEST) in the duel corresponding to matchday 10 of LaLiga EA Sports 2024/25. In the press conference prior to the duel in Balaídos, Carlo Ancelotti was asked about Kylian Mbappé's controversial trip to Sweden during the national team break, when the forward was supposed to rest to overcome his muscle discomfort. True to his custom, the one from Reggiolo defended his player.

"The rest days were scheduled for him and then everyone chooses what they want to do. I went to London for two days and I haven't asked anyone's permission," explained the Italian coach with a serious gesture. In addition, he added another viral phrase that showed his anger at an episode that could end up causing a serious problem for the 'White House' with its star signing for 2024/25. 

"I also don't have a travel agency to organize the players' trips," 'Carletto' concluded. The one from Bondy returned to training this week and, unlike Vinicius (he still has discomfort), he should be in the XI against the Galician team. According to Ancelotti, the break allowed the '9' to optimize his physical condition. "He is happy, looking forward to playing tomorrow," he commented.

Ancelotti rules out changing Mbappé's position in his scheme

On the other hand, the coach referred to Kylian's role within the team. Bondy's player has looked uncomfortable in the middle, as a reference in the area, but the coach does not plan to change his scheme. "Mbappé's tactical position does not change, his position may vary a little with Vini on the left wing and we have focused on recovering his physical condition. I see him very well," 'Carletto' pointed out. The Frenchman has 5 goals and 1 assist in 7 LaLiga games, in addition to the same in a couple of Champions League games.
