One of the most notable players in Real Madrid’s first team is undoubtedly Kylian Mbappé. The French footballer, after a long seven-year saga, arrived in Santiago Bernabéu locker room to fulfill his dream of wearing white and winning the Champions League. For now, that ideal future is close to becoming a reality, but there is still a long way to go.
The big question that the now ‘9’ of Real Madrid raised when he arrived in the Spanish capital was about his possible fit. Stars like Vinícius, Rodrygo, and Jude Bellingham had already formed their own group dynamics… and many argued that the Bondy striker would take quite a while to integrate as one more in the first white team.

Nothing could be further from the truth. At least on a personal level according to Kylian Mbappé himself in an interview with Ana Pastor. The merengue forward points out that, since he arrived, “I’m trying to learn about Spanish culture, the city of Madrid, and its gastronomy” to complete that adaptation that has created many rumors.
“I’m French, not Spanish, but people help me a lot,” Kylian Mbappé warns. The Real Madrid forward, besides improving all personal aspects, has certainly grown professionally. In addition to acknowledging that “I hit rock bottom” in the match at the new San Mamés, wearing the white jersey exposes him to other totally new and unknown dynamics.
Has a Defined Goal
So much so that the French footballer can’t hide that “now I’m very happy, you can see it on my face”. It’s not the first time Kylian Mbappé acknowledges having left behind the unhappiness he experienced during his last two seasons at PSG, severely pointed out by the ‘Mbappé case’. His possible departure toward Santiago Bernabéu locker room had many unexpected effects.
The merengue player has a great opportunity ahead in multiple facets. Not only can he complete that adaptation period to Real Madrid in his first season as a white player. He can also make history by achieving the first treble in the history of the merengue entity, an achievement that seemed impossible until now.

His 33 goals in all competitions played this season are an excellent help for the team… and one more reason to trust that Kylian Mbappé is doing everything on his part to settle in definitively. The French footballer acknowledges having worked since last July on becoming one inside and outside Santiago Bernabéu locker room.
The goal is to leave behind the doubts that have manifested at more than one moment this season and that can’t exist in the final stretch of this soccer season. Given the titles at stake, Real Madrid needs the best Kylian Mbappé… and the French ‘9’ is already working on reconnecting with his best version as soon as possible.
