MVP Mbappe sees Madrid 'ready' for this week

Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe said he sees the team “ready to win the three important games ” ahead of them, the first of them on Saturday against Celta in Balaidos, on Wednesday 22 October against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League at home, and then the clásico against Barcelona on Saturday 26 October.

"We have three very important games in the next few weeks, and for us the important thing is to win all three. I think the team is ready for it, so I hope we do great for all the Madridistas," said the striker after receiving his team's Mahou Five Star Player of the Month Award in September.

"I want to thank all the Real Madrid fans. It's a pleasure to be player of the month, but the most important thing is that we won a lot of games in September and that we continue like this so that we can win this award again," he added.

In the five games he played in September in a Los Blancos shirt, Mbappe scored six goals (five in La Liga and one in the Champions League) and provided one assist in the league championship. He was also absent from the Madrid derby on 29 September, where Real Madrid and Atlético drew 1-1.
