Kylian Mbappé has sent a farewell message thanking Carlo Ancelotti for his impact since he joined Real Madrid.
Real Madrid hosts Real Sociedad in the final La Liga match of the season. This will be Carlo Ancelotti's last game managing "Los Blancos".
With the Italian at the helm, Madrid won three Champions League titles (2014, 2022, 2024). Ancelotti is also the only manager who coached Mbappé during his first season at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Under Ancelotti's guidance, the French star had a successful season, despite the team not winning any trophies this year. Mbappe made 55 appearances, scoring 41 goals and providing 5 assists.

Kylian Mbappé's message
Mbappé has shared a message for the Italian manager after the manager announced his departure on Friday.
In an Instagram story, Mbappe thanked the Italian coach for all his support. The photo shows the two embracing.
"Mister, today is the last match of your great career at this club. Thank you to you and your staff for everything you've done for me since day one.
"It has been a great honour to have a coach like you. I wish you all the best for the future," Mbappe wrote on Instagram.
Mbappe is expected to start in Madrid's attack for Ancelotti's final game. Xabi Alonso will take over immediately following the Italian's departure and will hold his first press conference as Real Madrid manager on Monday.
Luka Modric and Lucas Vázquez will also play their last game at the Santiago Bernabéu, with both players set to leave "Los Blancos" at the end of the season.
