Alonso: Mbappe as the new playmaker at Real

Real's head coach Xabi Alonso shared his thoughts about the club's forward Kylian Mbappe after their 2-0 victory against Espanyol. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, in the latest match Mbappe played in a completely different role, namely as a playmaker. Alonso emphasized that Kylian fully understood the responsibility of playing around Urko, Espanyol's defensive midfielder.

Supporting Dmitrovich's play through long passes was important. Kylian has a deep understanding of football and performed very well as a second striker in today's game.

Additionally, Real has collected 15 points in five matches in the Spanish championship, placing them at the top of the league table. This result reflects the team's strong and consistent performance.

Xabi Alonso highly praised Mbappe's contribution to the team and highlighted that he is successfully fulfilling his changing roles on the field. The team is currently considered a main contender for the championship.
