According to a report by AS, Real Madrid striker Mbappe was interviewed by the newspaper's editorial director, José Félix Díaz, marking his first one-on-one interview with a Spanish sports newspaper. Mbappe explicitly stated in the interview that this year is a good year to win the Ballon d'Or, but he believes that the most important thing is not personal honors, but to bring the Ballon d'Or back to Real Madrid, back to the Bernabéu, and to reward the expectations of Real Madrid fans.

"My opinion is that this year is a good year to win the Ballon d'Or. My best defense lawyers are my feet, no matter how many words I say. For me, the most important thing is for the Ballon d'Or to return to Real Madrid. It must return to the Bernabéu, to the Real Madrid fans, to all those people, to bring them hope. Those people deserve it more than anyone in the world," Mbappe said. Barcelona star Lamine Yamal is one of his main rivals for this prestigious award, and when asked about Yamal, Mbappe commented: "I think he is an extremely talented player, and I feel he will have a brilliant career. I wish him all the best."

In the exclusive interview, in addition to the topic of the Ballon d'Or, Mbappe also spoke frankly about Florentino, Mourinho, his joining Real Madrid, his relationship with Vinicius and Bellingham, and the derby. This will be an in-depth conversation that focuses on the present, while also reviewing the past and looking forward to the future.

Mbappe also offered his explanation for the "Ceuta shirt support" incident that occurred during Real Madrid's away match against Elche. At the time, Vini Jr., Konaté, and Mbappe himself were only partially wearing their shirts. "I want to explain it well, so everyone understands. Putting on the shirt and wearing it is a club decision, and as players, we must wear it. The first thing I want to say is that I fully support Ceuta and all the victims. Because before I became a player, I was a human being. But I also want to express a gesture and a sentiment to all those migrants who have lost their lives and are also in difficult situations."

"This position is not easy, and it's difficult to handle, because ultimately people might think I'm against the people of Ceuta, but no, that's absolutely not the case. I am not against them at all, I support them wholeheartedly, one hundred percent. But I also want to express a sentiment to all those who are suffering, because ultimately I am human, and I don't want to show favoritism. Someone is suffering, and I am very sad to see these things happening in the world. I am a young man who wants to make our world better. I want to convey a positive and peaceful message, and I hope all of this can be resolved soon," Mbappe explained.
