According to Cadena Ser, Kilian Mbappé left France's national team training camp during the international break due to knee discomfort and did not undergo recovery training at Real Madrid's facilities. Instead, he was spotted engaging in other activities in France and elsewhere, reigniting long-standing debate about the French star's attitude and leadership status within Real Madrid's dressing room.

On Cadena Ser's "El Larguero" program, several commentators analyzed Mbappé's recent schedule. Journalist Antonio Romero clarified that Mbappé's issue was not an injury but actual discomfort. The problem is that when professional players experience this type of pain, they typically recover within the club, as it does not require medical intervention or specialist care.

Cadena Ser commentators noted that the club actually permitted Mbappé to leave Madrid, which in itself is not controversial. However, the issue arises when speaking with people inside Real Madrid's dressing room—they are not surprised but are somewhat taken aback because they have "never seen the kind of attitude Mbappé has displayed over the past two seasons from a player who wants to be a leader in Real Madrid's dressing room." Furthermore, this incident has also drawn Murillo's attention, as "Friday's Murillo press conference will now have a direct focus on this matter."

Focus on Murillo

Romero noted that what the Portuguese manager says at the press conference "will be a message that reaches his teammates in the dressing room, and everyone will see how Murillo handles a player taking rest when he is not at Valdebebas." Therefore, he will have "the opportunity to express his opinion on Mbappé's situation and send a message to the dressing room, and the players will watch closely." The journalist believes that "if Mbappé is not publicly or privately reprimanded by his manager, it could set a bad precedent in the dressing room since the season is long."

Additional Context

Meanwhile, Javier Herráez emphasized that the club is not concerned with the bicycle incident or specifically what Mbappé has done in recent days. Their primary concern is the team's competitiveness. Real Madrid's hierarchy believes that "Murillo needs to take action" because "Real Madrid is now facing football problems, and playing this way will not get them far." They view Mbappé's behavior as part of his personal style—"he is simply like this"—and while the club is "increasingly getting to know him better," they believe the team's performance requires immediate attention.

He's the best player, but not a leader

"Mbappé is Real Madrid's best player, but I would not put him in the top three candidates for dressing room leader," Manu Carreño commented. While emphasizing Mbappé's dominance on the pitch, he noted that "in terms of team leadership, the dressing room, and other aspects, I would rate him quite low." However, he believes the French player himself may not care much about taking on this role. Despite external pressure for him to be a leader, Mbappé's own thinking is that his role is to score goals, which he is clearly doing. "For those who doubt whether Mbappé came to be a leader, I think it's becoming increasingly clear. Mbappé came to play football, and he does it very well. He came to score goals, and he does it better than anyone. But in terms of leading the team or setting an example, he still falls well short," he explained.

The show's host clarified his point through an analogy. He said he increasingly feels that Mbappé is "like a guitarist opening the next concert at the Bernabéu on Saturday." "He arrives, opens his case, takes out his guitar, plays an amazing solo that sends the Bernabéu into raptures, and then leaves until the next performance." The problem is that this does not always work at every concert. Sometimes his guitar may be out of tune, and that is precisely Mbappé's core issue. No one questions his technical ability, but his attitude and his role in the dressing room and at the club are very much in question.
