Kylian Mbappe is reportedly willing to accept a new role at the Bernabeu Stadium despite concerns about positional conflicts. AS reveals that the French player is ready to play as a central forward for Real Madrid. Sources close to the leadership of Real Madrid affirm that the club did not encounter significant difficulties in persuading Mbappe to play as a number 9, despite initial concerns.
Throughout his career, Mbappe has preferred to play as a left forward, where he enjoys a certain degree of freedom to move inside and score goals. However, at Real Madrid, both Vinicius and Rodrygo have performed well in the forward positions on the wings. “Kylian Mbappe knows that if he plays as a number 9 for Real Madrid, he will feel more excited and comfortable with scoring goals. If he wins the Golden Shoe, Mbappe will have an easier time securing the Ballon d’Or,” AS reveals.
Previously, Spanish media reported that Mbappe had reached a five-year agreement with Real Madrid. The French star is also willing to accept a significant reduction in his current salary at PSG if he were to join Real Madrid.
