Is the real Kylian Mbappe about to arrive? Carlo Ancelotti says Real Madrid star's adaptation period is over and he's 'more motivated' to flourish after tough start

Champions League

Real Madrid

Salzburg

<p>Former Paris Saint-Germain star Mbappe has not proven to be the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/real-madrid-announce-signing-superstar-kylian-mbappe-from-psg/blt023bce8229a88449" target="_blank">blockbuster signing Madrid</a> thought they would be making so far. However, his manager Ancelotti says the Frenchman is playing well, can improve, and is "excited" to kick on for Los Blancos.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>“His adaptation period is over, he’s already showing a good version of himself, but he can still improve. He’s recovered from his last injury and I see him more motivated, excited. He needed this time, like anyone else, but it’s over now," he told reporters.</p>

WHAT CARLO ANCELOTTI SAID

<p>Mbappe is one of the best players in the world but his return of 12 goals and two assists in 22 games for Madrid does not reflect that. However, the 26-year-old has scored four goals in his last six matches in all competitions and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/kylian-mbappe-best-player-in-world-real-madrid-ballon-dor/blt05c85d2bf6353f0b" target="_blank">may be about to catch fire</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Mbappe's Madrid, who sit third in La Liga, will round off the year at home to 12th-placed Sevilla in the Spanish top-flight on Sunday afternoon.</p>
