Kylian Mbappé has shown his support for Vinicius. According to Europa Press, the Real Madrid forward considers it positive that his teammate is sad, as it “means he wants to give a lot,” even though the Brazilian is going through a tough spell, being suspended in the league and not very prominent in the big Champions League win against Leipzig on Wednesday.

These comments were reported by several Spanish media outlets, including El País, Mundo Deportivo, and 20minutos, which quote Mbappé as saying it is “very good that Vinicius is sad” because it shows his commitment to the team. RMC Sport also reported this stance.
