Kylian Mbappe explained how he plans to co-habit with Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr.
Given Real Madrid's vast offensive talent, the position where Kylian Mbappe will be deployed has been a topic of contention since it was announced he had signed for Real Madrid.
Mbappe, 25, favours the left wing, a position already occupied by the Champions League MVP for last season, Vinicius Jr. However, Kylian has explained that he does not intend to upset the apple cart and that he can work in tandem with Vinicius and Rodrygo.
