Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has provided a timely boost of morale to Kylian Mbappe ahead of a pivotal match. Following a disappointing performance against Valladolid, where Mbappe was unable to capitalize on several scoring chances, Perez visited the locker room to offer words of encouragement.
According to Spanish sports outlet Defensa Central, Perez commended Mbappe's efforts and expressed his unwavering belief in the striker's ability to overcome his current scoring slump. He reminded Mbappe of his previous goal-scoring prowess and assured him that his time to shine would come. The president's words were likely a welcome respite for Mbappe, who joined Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer and has been eager to make a significant impact on the team.
Mbappe's recent goal drought has been a topic of discussion among fans and pundits alike. However, Perez's vote of confidence could provide the striker with the mental edge he needs to rediscover his goal-scoring touch. With a crucial match on the horizon, Mbappe will be hoping to repay Perez's faith by delivering a match-winning performance.
