Real Madrid striker, Kylian Mbappe has come out to say that he can score 40 goals for his new club this season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he simply told himself that he had to do better when he was struggling earlier in the season, and he is pleased to be finally proving his importance to the team in recent games.
Mbappe added that playing well sometimes for Real Madrid is not enough, he wants to perform well in every match.
His words, “It was more mental, I told myself that I had to do better, I knew it, and it was a moment of ‘BAM’, it’s time to change because I didn’t come to Madrid to play badly. Playing well for a month is not enough. In Madrid you always have to play well. It is always a dream to wear this shirt. I have been living a dream since day one. The reason I did not come earlier was not the club’s fault, nor the fault of the Madrid supporters, it was mine. I have won two titles, and I am enjoying my time here. I have also learned about Spanish culture.
I will never become a shy player. When a player like me arrives at Madrid, they must come with humility. It is not shyness, I cannot come here and demand. I respect the game. With every passing moment, I have more importance in the team. If I can score 40, great; if I can score more, even better.”
WOW.
