Following the victory against Sevilla, Mbappe stated that he knows that he can give more for Los Blancos. The Frenchman has been criticized for his performances since joining Madrid as a free agent from PSG this summer.

In his post-match interview, Mbappe said (via Madrid Zone):

"I know I can give more. In the last few games, I played better. The Bilbao game was good for me, I missed a penalty and it was time for me to realise that I have to give everything for this shirt and do my best."

Mbappe has scored 13 goals and registered three assists in 23 games for Real Madrid this season and remains a key member of Carlo Ancelotti's squad.
