👻 Stirring things up again? France team-mate warns Mbappé!

Despite an outstanding 49 goal contributions in 44 competitive matches across all competitions, Kylian Mbappé has had a complicated season behind him. Real Madrid went without a title for the second year in a row and caused plenty of off-field distractions.

Mbappé repeatedly found himself at the center of these incidents as well. The 27-year-old was accused of egocentric behavior, but above all of a lack of work off the ball. And anyone who watched the Champions League quarterfinal matches against Bayern Munich knows: not entirely without reason.

The superstar is unlikely to be able to afford such an attitude in the ranks of the French national team . Not least because of Ousmane Dembélé .

The Ballon d'Or winner and two-time Champions League winner is even said to have taken his famous teammate to task over the issue. At least that is what the usually very well-connected L’Équipe journalist Loïc Tanzi reports.

Interesting: just a few years ago, Dembélé himself was not exactly known as a workhorse off the ball. But under Luis Enrique, the superstar turned into the first line of pressure in Paris ’ incredibly intense pressing game.

He is now demanding similar energy from Mbappé as well — presumably with some allowances.
