Thibault Morlain –
Journalist
After trying different sports, Thibault turned to a career as an amateur footballer. When making a choice between becoming a professional footballer and a journalist, the qualities tipped the scales to one side. Here he is now in the editorial staff of 10 Sport, after a diploma obtained at the International Institute of Communication in Paris.
Having exploded at a very young age, Kylian Mbappé was quickly considered one of the best players in the world and perhaps the successor to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Problem is, over the last few months, the trend has been towards stagnation in the level of French, and even worse in the eyes of some. Could we then see the great Mbappé again? Cyril Hanouna strongly doubts it.
At 25, Kylian Mbappé begins a new chapter in his career. Here he is today at Real Madrid after 7 seasons spent at PSG. While the last few months have not been easy for the Frenchman with the capital club, he will try to regain the level that was his in the Merengue jersey. But Mbappé will he be back on top with the Real Madrid ? Not sure…

“I don’t think he could ever get back to the level of play he had”
At the microphone ofEurope 1, Cyril Hanouna released a worrying announcement concerning the level of Kylian Mbappé and its development for the future. The presenter assured: “ Be careful with the level of play. I think he could never again find the level of play that he had, that he had at the time. This is a much deeper problem than what people say. I think the level of play will never return to what it was before. It’s not possible. For what ? There are a lot of players arriving, new players arriving who are pushing. And I think he reached his peak a little earlier, at 23-24 years old. Develop other abilities like Zizou? It has nothing to do with it. Technically, Zizou has nothing to do with it. Mbappé, he only has his speed ».
“When Real Madrid got Mbappé back, he was on his knees”
Kylian Mbappé did not arrive 100% at the Real Madrid this summer. “ When Real Madrid got Mbappé back, he was on his knees. I tell you, the information is certain, Real Madrid said: “Guys, they sent us a guy, he doesn’t run 3 meters”. What they did was a lot of physical preparation for two months. It’s getting better, but it’s going to take time », also revealed Hanouna.
