Kylian Mbappé Frustrated After Missing El Clásico as Fresh Details Emerge

Kylian Mbappé has expressed his disappointment after missing the latest El Clásico clash against FC Barcelona, admitting that he was fully prepared and eager to play in one of football’s biggest matches.

Speaking after the game, Mbappé made his feelings clear about being left out of the squad. The French superstar stated, “It’s a shame I could not play El Clásico… I love playing that game, I always score against Barça!”

The forward also insisted that he was physically fit and ready for action despite concerns surrounding his condition. “I was 100% ready to play. I always want to play. But we move forward,” Mbappé added.

The comments have sparked major discussion among fans and media, especially after new reports from Diario AS revealed what allegedly happened behind the scenes before the match.

According to the report, Mbappé was desperate to feature in El Clásico “at all costs.” However, tensions reportedly escalated when he learned he would not be included in the starting lineup. The situation allegedly caused frustration inside the camp, with claims that the player left training before the session ended after reporting discomfort.

What raised even more eyebrows was the decision not to include him in the squad at all — not even as an emergency substitute. Reports suggest this differed from the approach previously taken under Xabi Alonso during the Supercopa, where Mbappé had still been available despite fitness concerns.

The absence of one of football’s biggest stars was heavily felt during the iconic rivalry clash. Mbappé has historically enjoyed strong performances against Barcelona, making his omission even more surprising for supporters.

Fans on social media have been divided over the situation. While some believe the coaching staff made the right decision to avoid risking the player’s fitness, others argue that a player of Mbappé’s quality should always be available for a match as important as El Clásico.

As speculation continues, attention will now turn toward Mbappé’s relationship with the coaching staff and whether the incident could have any long-term impact inside the dressing room. One thing remains certain: the French superstar clearly hates missing the biggest occasions, especially against Barcelona.
