Real Madrid squad's 'true feelings' on Kylian Mbappe emerge after dressing room 'leak' before Liverpool clash

The true feelings of the Real Madrid dressing room towards Kylian Mbappe have been revealed ahead of the Champions League clash with Liverpool.

After an exciting evening of Champions League drama that saw Manchester City throw away a 3-0 lead to draw with Feyenoord, the premier European competition is back in action on Wednesday night.

The biggest match of the evening is undoubtedly the clash between rivals Liverpool and Real Madrid at Anfield, with the result likely to be highly significant for both clubs.

But ahead of the match, a 'leak' from the Real Madrid dressing room has revealed how players really feel about new star signing Mbappe.

According to Spanish outlet Relevo, Mbappe has earned the approval of the Real Madrid dressing room after joining the club from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in June.

Despite reportedly earning coming into the club and immediately earning more than his teammates, Mbappe remains popular and has not caused problems with any other player at the club.

The Frenchman is described as cheerful, intelligent and relaxed, but the club are still waiting for him to once again become the player who can drag his team to victory when struggling.

And the Madrid dressing room are reportedly hoping that, in the absence of star winger Vinicius Jr, Wednesday's match against Liverpool will be the game that set a fire under Mbappe and kickstarts an exciting second half to his first season with Los Blancos.

Since arriving at the Bernabeu, the 25-year-old has scored nine goal and assisted two in 17 appearances, disappointing some fans who expected him to continue his electric from in the French league.

But leading his side to victory on Wednesday would almost certainly silence any doubters as it would provide Real with a much-needed three points in the Champions League table.

After suffering shock defeats against both AC Milan and Lille, Carlo Ancelotti's side have fallen to 21st in the 36-team Champions League group stage.

With just six points, they are currently four points behind the top eight clubs sides that automatically progress to the next round.

And if the La Liga giants were to drop points against Arne Slot's high-flying Reds, they could spectacularly crashing out of the competition as they sit just two points ahead of the twelve sides that will be knocked out after the group stage.
