Cristiano Ronaldo sends Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti warning over Kylian Mbappe

Carlo Ancelotti seems to have decided that Kylian Mbappé will start games as the central forward for Real Madrid, though his position has been debated.

While Mbappé started the season in the middle and showed improvement after a rough October and November, his best performances have come on the left side, especially without Vinícius Júnior.

Similarly, Rodrygo Goes also looks more comfortable on the left. Cristiano Ronaldo’s former playing style is referenced, with Ancelotti noting that Mbappé's natural position isn't as a traditional striker.

However, Mbappé's current form, surpassing Ronaldo's goals per game ratio this season, indicates he's becoming a key leader at Real Madrid.
