According to the French press, Mbappe's connection with his teammates has worsened as a result of the arrival of so many Spanish-speaking players, as well as his wish to leave the club this summer. Mbappe made his first appearance for Monaco in the Champions League on this day.
Kylian Mbappe has a special date on September 27th. On that day, the 17-year-old French attacker made his first Champions League appearance for Monaco. In a 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen, he played 13 minutes.
Mbappe's first Champions League game was five years ago today, on September 27th. Mbappe played seven minutes more versus CSKA Moscow at home and five minutes more on the road in 2016.
Mbappe produced one of his most memorable performances during the same season, but in 2017 and the last-16. In a 5-3 setback to Manchester City, he scored his first Champions League goal, but a 3-1 victory advanced them to the quarter-finals.
With the exception of the Champions League semifinals against Juventus, he has scored or assisted in 12 consecutive Champions League games.
In 46 games, he scored 27 goals and added 16 assists.
This 'anniversary' comes at an odd time in Kylian Mbappe's career, since his future remains uncertain, and his connection with the dressing room has deteriorated, according to 'L'Equipe,' due to the entrance of so many Spanish speakers to the team. With the arrival of Pochettino and Messi, his role as team captain was altered.
Despite being voted Ligue 1 player of the month in August, his controversial insinuations that Neymar did not pass him the ball when he was subbed off against Montpellier have many PSG fans doubting him.
Mbappe will have the opportunity to avenge PSG's Champions League loss against Manchester City this season. Messi might return for the match.
