Warning to LALIGA: 'Mbappe is at his best now'

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti says Kylian Mbappe has now fully adapted to the team.

Mbappe has netted nine goals in LALIGA this campaign so far, but struggled to combine with his fellow attackers early on.

The Frenchman has been deployed as the striker for Los Blancos, as he the left wing position is occupied by talisman Vinicius Junior.

Ancelotti feels the World Cup winner is now over the adaption phase and only needs consistency from now on.

"[Mbappé's] period of adaptation has finished," Ancelotti said, as per ESPN.

"He's now at his best, but he can still improve. He's played well in recent games. He's recovered from the little injury he had and he looks more motivated, excited. He needed time, like everybody does, but that period is over.

"Sometimes Rodrygo has been injured, sometimes Bellingham, they've played few games [together] but from what little we've seen they combine well.

 "Sometimes Mbappé has played the left, sometimes Vinícius has played inside, or Bellingham on the left ... I won't fix a position for the four, but rather I'll give them a lot of freedom.

"Mbappé only has to improve in his consistency, trying to do the things that only he can do, as often as possible. I don't ask him to be very involved in the build-up play. His best characteristic is finding space and getting into the box. That's what he needs to do more frequently."
