Real Madrid's players are not happy at all with Kylian Mbappe, reports have claimed.
Mbappe has been tremendous since signing for Los Blancos in 2024. Big things were expected of the Frenchman when he joined the club, and he has not disappointed, scoring 85 goals in 100 matches.
After scoring 44 times in his opening campaign, he has been even better in 2025/26, scoring 41 times in as many matches.
Mbappe's performances on the pitch cannot be questioned, but his actions off the field have wound up his Real Madrid teammates and also angered club president Florentino Perez.
Real Madrid Take Issue With Kylian Mbappe's Behaviour

French outlet L'Equipe have reported that Mbappe is becoming 'increasingly isolated' at Real Madrid and many of his teammates are 'frustrated' with his behaviour.
The publication claims that Mbappe has recently shown an extremely 'self-centred' attitude both on and off the pitch, which has drawn strong disapproval within the club.
Some Real Madrid players are also upset about how he appears to be treated differently. Mbappe allegedly disrespected a member of staff during training and arrived 40 minutes late for a team lunch. He was not punished on both occasions.
It has been claimed that he has lost support within the dressing room and is only close with Real Madrid's French players: Ferland Mendy, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Eduardo Camavinga.
Florentino Perez and Real Madrid Fans Angry With Kylian Mbappe

Mbappe, regarded as one of the best players in world football, is currently recovering from a hamstring injury he sustained during Real Madrid's draw against Real Betis in April.
Instead of staying at Valdebebas focusing on rehabilitation, the French forward reportedly took trips with his partner Ester Expósito to Paris and Italy.
Mbappe was not present for Real Madrid's match against Espanyol at the RCDE Stadium on Sunday, as he arrived in Madrid 12 minutes before the start of the match.
While it is believed he had permission to continue his recovery in Cagliari, his trips were interpreted as leisure travel in Spain and Real Madrid fans have now lost patience with him.
On Real Madrid's X post of their players in training on Monday, hundreds of fans left messages urging the club to sell the 27-year-old.
Real Madrid president Perez is also not happy with Mbappe and his attitude, Sport have claimed.
Los Blancos have a huge game against Barcelona coming up this weekend. Perez expects Mbappe to be fit to face the Catalan side and wants him out on the pitch, despite the fact he has not yet passed a fitness test.

Alvaro Arbeloa was asked about Mbappe's trips to France and Italy after their match against Espanyol. He said, per Football Espana:
“I don’t doubt the commitment of any of my players. I think everyone knows how important these games are for us. When you defend the Real Madrid shirt, you are in this house, you understand the demands of the club.
"We are one in which there has not been and will not be a bigger player than Real Madrid. And I think all my players understand this perfectly. What they represent, where they are and how important it is. And the luck that everyone has, that we all have to be at Real Madrid.”
He also spoke about Mbappe's chances of being available for El Clasico. He said: “We are going to see with Mbappe how he is this week. After last week’s tests it looked like he was going to be out a bit longer but… Let’s see how it evolves. And with Carvajal the same. I have a lot of hope that he can play before the end of the season, that he can recover and say goodbye to the season playing on the pitch, which is what Dani Carvajal deserves.”
