This Tuesday, Real Madrid face AS Monaco in the Champions League, so Kylian Mbappé was present in front of the media on Monday. The Real Madrid striker was questioned on all the hot topics. When asked about his teammate Brahim Diaz's turbulent CAN 2025 final, Mbappé left a message.

"I didn't speak directly with Brahim. I talked with Achraf (Hakimi) and I can somewhat understand what happened. It's a tough moment. It's true that I've also experienced difficult times with the national team—anger, frustration. But you have to keep working. That's the life of a footballer. I came to Madrid to win titles, but you also have to think about people, about feelings. Our goal is to help Brahim recover and support him," he said on Monday.
