Real Madrid drew with hosts Real Mallorca on Sunday evening in the first round of the Spanish League.
Real Madrid did not perform as everyone expected after signing French star Kylian Mbappe this summer.
The performance of English star Jude Bellingham was not as usual in the Mallorca match, as you feel that he does not feel free after returning to the midfield position.
One of Bellingham’s advantages is that he is allowed to play freely on the field, and the reason for his brilliance was his participation in such a role last season, especially during the injury period of Brazilian star Vinicius Junior.
Now Mbappe has come, and Italian Carlo Ancelotti was forced to play him as an explicit striker with the duo Rodrigo and Vinicius Junior in the right and left wing positions.
The presence of an attacking trio in Real Madrid also forced Ancelotti to be satisfied with Bellingham’s role as a pivot player who does not participate in creating the play, but only delivers the ball to the attacking line.
Spanish newspapers talked about this matter, and about the possibility of destroying Real Madrid’s system because of Mbappe, who is also wronged by his participation in the explicit striker position. Bellingham will lose his brilliance if he continues his current role, which does not fully express the extent of the English star’s capabilities.
