We knew him to be an elegant player in his role as playmaker and decisive passer. José María Gutiérrez Hernández, better known as Guti, played fifteen seasons in the Real Madrid shirt, and six others coaching young people there. So when the former Merengue midfielder, now 46, decides to speak out on the TV show The beach bar, on the possible future arrival of Kylian Mbappé in the Spanish capital, we listen to him. And that’s pretty straightforward.
“Mbappé must come to Real Madrid with his head down and be one of the others in the locker room, warns Guti. If this is not the case, he is mistaken and does not know which club he comes from. After the nasty thing he did at the club, he has to win everything. And that he is one more element in the locker room (…) This is the reality. I played with Zidane, I played with Figo, I played with Ronaldo… and that’s how you come to Real Madrid. I don’t know how he lives in Paris or how the PSG locker room is, but the Real Madrid locker room is like that. Otherwise, they won’t want you inside. »
As a reminder, Kylian Mbappé signed a contract extension with PSG last summer until 2024, with an option for an additional season. And there is no guarantee that the Messi-Neymar-Mbappé attacking trio will still be relevant in a few months…
