Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe is facing growing tension inside the Spanish club, according to a report by French newspaper L’Equipe. The report claimed that some players believe Mbappe’s behavior has become “too individualistic,” raising concerns about his place within the dressing room.

The French star is also said to have drawn attention with his conduct away from matches. According to the report, claims include a disrespectful attitude toward club staff during training and late arrivals at team meals.

French circle becomes Mbappe’s closest group

L’Equipe also reported that Mbappe has few close relationships left in the squad outside Real Madrid’s French players, suggesting that the forward has become increasingly isolated within the team.

Despite the growing claims, the report did not include any official response from Real Madrid or Mbappe.
