Kylian Mbappe is “unhappy” with Carlo Ancelotti’s tactical system at Real Madrid, according to shock reports in Spain.
The France superstar joined Los Blancos from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in July, but he has been widely criticised after a tough start to life at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Mbappe has been forced to play as a centre forward due to the presence of Vinicius Junior, a role in which he has struggled, and he is reportedly discontent with Real Madrid’s current style of play, as per Mundo Deportivo.

The 25-year-old has reportedly informed his close friends that he isn’t happy with Real Madrid’s recent form or with Ancelotti’s system.
At PSG, Mbappe was the main man and everything flowed through him in attack. However, he isn’t the only Galactico at Real Madrid and this has irked Mbappe, who isn’t happy with the current style of play being deployed in the Spanish capital.
The Real Madrid superstar, who has been omitted by Didier Deschamps in his latest France squad, has eight goals in 15 appearances so far this season, but he has only scored one in his last five games.

Thierry Henry on Kylian Mbappe
Arsenal and France legend Thierry Henry has admitted that Mbappe’s presence at Real Madrid has impacted Los Blancos so far this campaign.
“I know Mbappe is not a No.9,” he told CBS after Real Madrid’s 3-1 defeat to AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night.
“I know this may not be his favourite role, but will and desire speak. You do not win games with your No.10, Jude Bellingham, making runs instead of the striker. Coming back, bending his run, defending, and he gets substituted. I would have been upset too.

“I saw Bellingham kick a bottle when he came off. He was the one making all the runs, not Mbappe. I would be upset also. Of course I would also have been upset. This is not good enough. I don’t think they are playing well as a team.
“Mbappe will get better, because he can’t be worse than this. We are not asking him to hold the ball like Didier Drogba. Or take the ball and dribble past everybody. Make runs, when the team is high. Whether you’re a winger, a striker or a 10.”
