Following his remarkable performance in the 2022 World Cup, Kylian Mbappe’s career has experienced a slowdown marked by off-pitch controversies and limited on-field impact. Despite being linked to potential transfers uncertainty surrounds his future with PSG executives expecting a move to Real Madrid. However, contract negotiations face obstacles and it appears Mbappe’s influence is waning.
Criticisms include his individualistic playing style and failure to adapt to modern tactical demands contributing to a perceived decline in performance. The irony lies in Madrid and PSG adopting a tactical youth-focused approach potentially moving on from Mbappe. PSG’s evolving strategy may signal a shift away from the “vanity project” era impacting Mbappe’s Champions League aspirations.
The current focus on developing a young dynamic squad reflects a departure from star-studded line-ups challenging Mbappe’s previous expectations. The shift towards long term projects poses questions about Mbappe’s trajectory and the urgency to reignite his career.
