Mbappe had a disappointing season with Real Madrid. |
No Champions League, no La Liga, no Copa del Rey - Mbappe's first season in Madrid seemed to pass quietly. But fate still gave him one last chance. And nothing could be more bitter for PSG than the fact that the very man they lost could win the world title before they could.
Mbappe watched the Champions League final in Marrakech. He sent his congratulations to PSG, expressing his joy for his old friends.
But deep in those eyes, there must be a bit of regret - and a smoldering motivation that is growing. If he cannot conquer the top of Europe with PSG, then with Real Madrid, Mbappe can touch the only noble club title that he still lacks: world champion.
The Club World Cup is now his stage – and not just a trophy. It’s a payback, a chance to prove that Mbappe doesn’t need to look back, because his future is brighter than ever.
It is worth noting that Mbappe's role at Real Madrid is gradually taking shape. Under Carlo Ancelotti, he was pushed to play as a centre-forward and has shown absolute effectiveness. Coach Didier Deschamps continues to put his faith in his student in that role for the French national team, despite the disappointing results in the Nations League.
But what hasn't changed is that Mbappe is still scoring and assisting regularly. And now, it's Xabi Alonso's turn - Real Madrid's new coach - to make a strategic decision about the most anticipated player on the planet.
In his first press conference, Alonso refused to say specifically where Mbappe would play. But he did stress one thing: “With players of such caliber, my job is to get the most out of them.”
Mbappe and Vinicius - two top stars - will be at the heart of the play, and Alonso understands that the key to success lies in connecting these two spearheads in the same effective system.
However, recently Mbappe has been in good form at Real Madrid and the French national team. |
Looking back at Mbappe's journey, it's impossible not to mention his brilliant form in the final stages of the season. Since the Copa del Rey final against Barca, he has scored 10 goals in the last 6 rounds of La Liga, not to mention 2 more for France. 12 goals in 8 games - a form that no current Ballon d'Or candidate can match. He won both the Golden Boot and the Pichichi, despite a rather slow start to the season. It's not just a statistic - it's a message.
The Club World Cup is not the most prestigious tournament, but in the context of Real Madrid's less than perfect season, it is a lifeline - and an opportunity for Mbappe to assert his personal power. A world title, a dominant performance, a spectacular sprint - that is the formula that can put him ahead in the Ballon d'Or race, especially when his close friend Ousmane Dembele is a formidable rival with PSG after winning the Champions League.
Mbappe enters this tournament with the spirit of someone who has nothing to lose, but has everything to win. Not just for fame, but also for honor. He doesn't need to say much. Every sprint, every goal scored in the US this time, will be an affirmation: "I am here to be number one".
For Mbappe, the Club World Cup is more than just a trophy. It is the stage for him to rewrite a story that could have ended in Paris - but will now end in Madrid, on his own terms.
