Kylian Mbappe has expressed his willingness to play anywhere across Real Madrid’s front line in the upcoming season.
Following his high-profile transfer to Madrid earlier this summer, speculation has abounded regarding how he would integrate into an attacking lineup already featuring standout talents like Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, and Rodrygo.
Speaking fluently in Spanish at his first press conference on Tuesday, Mbappe emphasized his flexibility and readiness to adapt to manager Carlo Ancelotti’s strategies.
“Wherever the manager wants,” he told the media in fluent Spanish. “I can play in the three positions up front. I’ve done it at PSG, Monaco, and the national team.
“That’s a detail for the journalists, but for me it’s not up for debate. I want to be on the pitch. I don’t care where. What I want is to help Real Madrid.”
He continued: “Vinicius is a great player and I am very happy to play with him. Also with Rodrygo and with everyone. Great players are made to play together. I will have no problems playing with Vinicius. He had a perfect last few seasons. Now I have to adapt to Vinicius, Rodrygo, and everyone to help them.”
 Mbappe had already spoken with Vinicius in an attempt to build a relationship between the two as soon as possible.
“The French players used to tell me [to come to Madrid] a lot,” Mbappe admitted. “Vinicius also sent me messages: ‘Come to Madrid, we’ll score goals together’.
“I don’t need those messages to know that this is the best team in the world, but it’s a pleasure to feel loved.
“I’m looking forward to playing with the players. Vini, Bellingham… they’re great players, but they all are. I met some of my teammates this morning. I’m very happy to be a Real Madrid player.”
