On Friday, Real Madrid and France international Kylian Mbappé's Stade Malherbe Caen was relegated to the French third division for the first time in its history.
This news is another blow for the French star after the elimination of Real Madrid from the UEFA Champions League and compounded by an injury he sustained during the second leg against Arsenal.
Real Madrid exited the Champions League in the quarterfinals after a heavy aggregate 1–5 loss to Arsenal, with Mbappé forced to leave the return leg at Santiago Bernabéu due to injury.
According to Spanish newspaper Sport, Caen was officially relegated with three games still remaining in the season.
The relegation was sealed after a 3–0 home defeat to Martigues, which sparked angry protests from the fans.
Supporters displayed offensive banners aimed at the players, club management, and even Mbappé himself, who serves as chairman of the club's board.
