Is Kylian Mbappe struggling at Real Madrid
Los Blancos have suffered back-to-back damaging defeats at Santiago Bernabeu, bringing into question Ancelotti’s long-term future at the club.
They were walloped 4-0 by Barcelona in the league before going 3-1 down to AC Milan in the Champions League.
They are currently nine points behind Barcelona in the La Liga race, though they have played fewer games. The team’s imbalance is the more urgent question Ancelotti needs to address, especially after Lucas Vazquez’s comments.
“Both defending and attacking is a collective issue, and we have to give a lot more to be able to win games,” as quoted by Marca.
Who can replace Ancelotti as Real Madrid boss?
Sportskeeda now reports that the club is considering Raul Gonzalez and Santiago Solari as the mid-season interim replacements.

Raul is the current manager of the Castilla (Real Madrid B) team. His form in the lower league hasn’t been great either, with Castilla only getting nine points from 11 league games this season.
Solari meanwhile, has been in charge of the club in the past. He took over from Julen Lopetegui in late 2018 but was sacked in March 2019.
