President Perez lavishly praises Mbappe

Following his two goals that led Real Madrid to a 3-0 victory against Oviedo, Kylian Mbappé reaffirmed his elite finishing ability and gained full confidence from President Florentino Perez.

The 3-0 triumph over Real Oviedo not only confirmed Real Madrid’s strength in La Liga but also showcased another brilliant performance by Kylian Mbappe. The French superstar once again took center stage by netting a brace, raising his season tally to 3 goals in just 2 matches. However, what caught fans’ attention most was President Florentino Perez’s special reaction toward the high-profile newcomer.

Seated in the VIP stands, Perez watched Mbappe’s every move with a look of great satisfaction. According to the report Defensa Central, when the French star scored his brace, the president couldn’t hide his contented smile. After the match, he not only went down to the locker room to congratulate the entire team but also took a private moment with Mbappe.

Perez embraced the number 10 forward tightly and jokingly said with a hint of meaning: “Here at Bernabeu, maybe we’ll have to make room for another Pichichi this year, right?” This remark served both as a blessing and a strong message to Mbappe, expressing Perez’s expectation that he will become La Liga’s top scorer and lead Real Madrid to conquer new heights.

With his brace against Oviedo, Mbappe has now scored in 7 consecutive domestic matches, bringing his total goals since joining Real Madrid to 47. This achievement not only proves his consistent goal-scoring ability but also highlights his quick adaptation to the high-pressure environment in Madrid.

For Perez, Mbappe is not just a blockbuster signing. He sees him as the new symbol of Real Madrid’s ambitions, someone who can inherit Cristiano Ronaldo’s legacy and restore “Los Blancos” to the top position in Europe. The meaningful message in the Bernabeu locker room clearly reflects Perez’s absolute faith in Mbappe.

That expectation also serves as motivation for Mbappe to keep shining. If he maintains this form, the prospect of Perez “making room for another Pichichi” at Bernabeu could very well become reality in the 2025/26 season.
