Public sentiment has finally exploded. Kylian Mbappé (27), recently identified as the main culprit behind internal turmoil at Real Madrid, has now reached a desperate state where he is even booed by home fans.
The British media outlet 'BBC' reported on the 15th (Korean time) that "when Mbappé entered the Santiago Bernabéu during Real Madrid's 2-0 victory over Real Oviedo, home fans poured out boos."
This is the humiliation of an ace who has displayed miraculous scoring power with 41 goals in 41 matches across all competitions this season. Public opinion against Mbappé is already close to its worst.
It is no surprise. Mbappé previously complained of hamstring pain and left the training ground just one day before the El Clásico against arch-rival FC Barcelona. Criticism intensified when Spanish media revealed images of Mbappé smiling broadly as he left the training ground.

The trouble extends beyond the stadium. During his injury recovery period, Mbappé sparked controversy by enjoying a luxurious yacht vacation in Sardinia. Consequently, a petition on social networking services (SNS) demanding Mbappé's release has gathered tens of millions of signatures, an unprecedented situation.
Moreover, the situation inside the locker room is dire. Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni ended up in the hospital after a fierce altercation, and record fines were imposed, completely collapsing team discipline. Fans, who had to watch their rival secure the title after losing to Barcelona last Sunday, finally exploded in patience at their home stadium. The stadium saw not only boos directed at Mbappé but also banners calling for the resignation of President Florentino Pérez.

According to 'BBC', Mbappé, who was substituted in during the 24th minute of the second half against Oviedo, remained calm despite the boos from home fans. In a post-match interview, Mbappé said, "Boos are part of life. It is impossible to change people's thoughts when they are angry," and added, "It is a life that must be endured by any Real Madrid player or a famous player like me." He further stated, "Football players do not need to understand everything, but they must accept the situation, look to the future, and change."
Club executives also rushed to contain the crisis. President Pérez held an unprecedented emergency press conference and launched a fierce critique against forces trying to shake the club. However, it seems difficult for Real Madrid, marred by the ace's attitude controversy and factional infighting, to quickly turn public sentiment around.
