Kylian Mbappé is at the center of a new controversy in Spain following Real Madrid’s defeat to FC Barcelona in the Clasico on Sunday.
Mbappé has been under scrutiny in recent weeks for his perceived individualistic behavior and his trip to Sardinia with his partner during a league match. The French forward missed the Clasico due to a hamstring injury and was criticized for posting on social media during the game.
Shortly after the match started, Mbappé posted a message saying “Hala Madrid” with a white heart and a photo of the game on TV. Madrid was already trailing by two goals at that point, causing backlash from the club’s fans.
Many supporters viewed this post as a provocation, especially amidst internal tensions within the team. Real Madrid is facing a trophyless season, and the end of the season looks challenging for Mbappé and the fans.
