I agree with that. Mbappé's arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu should further enhance Real Madrid's attack. Both players are top-tier players, and they should be able to work together for the team's progress. However, it's truly regrettable that Vinicius considers Mbappé's presence a threat to his role as Real Madrid's star. He refuses to lower his ego, which is why Vinicius' performance last season was quite poor.
The new season is about to begin, but Real Madrid's attacking issues haven't been completely resolved. A new star has emerged in Gonzalo Garcia, making the competition even tighter. Rodrygo is one Real Madrid player who lost out in this competition and is now on the transfer market. I'm eager to see what other players will enter the summer transfer market before the new season actually begins.
When such problems arises between players in same team it is the duty of the coach to find a common ground for them to come to peace with eachother by making sure they place the interest of the team above their personal interest. But this was one thing Ancelotti failed to do. However, Xabi Alonso's position as coach should be able to resolve all of those superiority attitudes between Vinicius and Mbappe. I would have suggested selling off Vinicius but at the moment Real Madrid needs him especially now they are having a worse era.
Alonso has mentioned the biggest mistake in the defeat to PSG, saying it was playing Vinicius and Kylian Mbappé together. At the time, I didn't see Mbappé playing selfishly. He prioritized teamwork and trusted his teammates, including Vinicius. But Vinicius wasn't playing selfishly. Vinicius is indeed a crucial player for Real Madrid's attack, but the team doesn't need selfish players. If Vinicius can't control his emotions and tone down his ego on the pitch, he deserves to be removed from the Real Madrid starting lineup.
Looking at how XA has managed Bayer Leverkusen, I believe he's a coach who prioritizes solidarity and teamwork. Players with high ambitions are a thorn in the side's side, so Real Madrid must remove that thorn before the season starts. Real Madrid has big plans for this new season, including conquering Europe again, but those big plans won't be achieved if the team's cooperation isn't strong.
Not just Xabi Alonso but there has been many fans too who have said same about having to play Vinicius and Mbappe together because it makes Mbappe not to play his natural position since Vinicius would be playing from the wing side. But it's now left for Alonso to find remedy to this since he has voiced it out as one of Madrid's problem.but an not sure that selling Vinicius will be a choice in his best interest if he really wants to have a quality team that can match against their opponents for next season.
