The adjustment won't be difficult for Mbappe in Madrid. His new team consists of good players who understand how to work as a team. Madrid has shown how strong they are in Europe. having star players on the team is not difficult for them.
Mbappe now sees how he has to be more serious in Madrid. He is indeed a good player but he still has to compete with others. It's not just a matter of winning the Champions League, the real challenge will come next season. Hopefully, he can be a goal machine for Madrid.
I think with the abilities he has, Mbappe will adapt more easily to Madrid, just like Bellingham who didn't need long to adapt. In Madrid, players like Joselu are also able to appear impressive, Mbappe will definitely get full support from other players. Apart from that, hopefully Mbappe will avoid injury problems, so that he can perform as expected.
Mbappe came to be the main player, not a second tier player, even though there is competition on the front lines, I think the competition is more healthy. Ancelotti will change his strategy to suit Mbappe, so that Mbappe potential can be maximized. I don't think Rodrygo position will be threatened, because Ancelotti is quite capable of experimenting.
The competition next season will indeed be more competitive, especially in the Champions League. Kroos retirement may have an impact on Madrid performance. It is clear that the challenges facing Madrid next season will be more difficult. However, with the young players becoming more mature, and the arrival of Mbappe next season, it feels like Madrid will continue to dominate all competitions.
