He turned the page after elimination with France, and what Mbappé will do now ahead of his arrival at Real Madrid

Kylian Mbappé was very disappointed that he couldn't help France to advance to the European Championship final after losing 2-1 to Spain yesterday in the semifinal. The French star was very excited about the EUROS this summer because he was motivated to win the trophy he has yet to win with the French national team. He already won the World Cup at 19 in the 2018 World Cup and reached the final of the World Cup in his first two competitions. Mbappé spoke after the EUROS, and despite him getting his dream move to Real Madrid, he is focused on something else before thinking about playing for Los Blancos next season. After the loss against Spain, Mbappé said, "I will go on holiday now, I will rest well, it will do me a lot of good, then I will get ready to start a new life (at Real Madrid). There's a lot of work to do." Mbappé reached the Champions League semifinals with PSG and failed to advance to the final, which made it a long season for him.

Mbappé was really hard on himself after the elimination of France at the EUROS. Mbappé said, "In football, you are either good or not good. Today I wasn’t good. My EURO was a failure. I need to work hard to come back very strong next season." Mbappé finished the EURO 2024 campaign with one goal and one assist. France only scored one goal in the open play, which was the Randal Kolo Muani goal vs. Spain yesterday.

Mbappé spoke about wearing the mask during the tournament, and he expressed how bad it was to wear it. Mbappé said, "Not wearing the mask? I had enough of my mask, it was affecting my performances and I couldn’t deal with it anymore so I spoke to the doctor and asked to play without it."
