Arbeloa Responds to Mbappé's Fourth Striker Claim
Álvaro Arbeloa, the manager of Real Madrid, addressed Kylian Mbappé's assertion that he ranks as the fourth striker at the club. This statement came after Real Madrid's 2-0 victory against Real Oviedo in La Liga on Thursday night.
Mbappé claimed that Arbeloa placed him behind Vinícius Júnior and Gonzalo Mastantuono in the striker hierarchy. In response, Arbeloa refuted this claim, stating that Mbappé may have misinterpreted his words.
He emphasized that he does not concern himself with names but rather with the team's performance and decisions regarding player selection. Arbeloa indicated that he did not say anything about having four attackers and suggested that Mbappé likely misunderstood the situation.
He reiterated his focus on team dynamics rather than individual rankings.
