Carlo Ancelotti is not interested in rumors of Kylian Mbappe arriving at Real Madrid. The Italian tactician admitted that he wanted to focus more on preparing his team to compete for the title this season.
As is known, Mbappe has become a hot topic of conversation again. It is widely reported that the 25 year old player will definitely leave Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) at the end of the season, as his contract expires. It is also reported that he has informed PSG boss Nasser Al Khelaifi regarding his decision.
This situation will clearly make Mbappe a hot commodity in the 2024 summer transfer market. News is widely circulating that the former AS Monaco player will move to Real Madrid. Although there is no definite information from both parties until now.
Ancelotti was also asked about the truth of these rumors at a press conference session ahead of the match against Rayo Vallecano in the 2023/2024 Spanish League. The Italian tactician understands that this issue is a hot issue, but he emphasized that his focus is on today’s match.
“I saw and heard what happened. “I understand that Mbappe is today’s topic for you, but for us it (focus) is the match,” said Ancelotti, quoted from the official Real Madrid website, Sunday (18/2/2024).
The coach who is familiarly called Don Carlo expressed his ambition to bring Real Madrid to win the Spanish League trophy this season. Therefore, according to him, now is not the time to discuss rumors of Mbappe going to Los Blancos.
“We have to finish this season well. I want to finish the season well and try to win trophies. “There is a lot of time to think about next season,” said Ancelotti.
For your information, Real Madrid will visit Rayo’s headquarters at the Estadio de Vallecas on Sunday (18/2/2024). Victory is an important result for Los Blancos to continue to strengthen their position at the top of the Spanish League standings this season.
