According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Real Madrid’s “Mbappé era” has finally begun after seven years of waiting. The French football prodigy has arrived in the Spanish capital and shared photos of himself on social media.
On August 7, Mbappé will step onto Real Madrid’s training ground for the first time, beginning his pre-season preparations. He has one goal in mind: to lift his first trophy with Real Madrid.
“I’m confident I can play in the UEFA Super Cup, but ultimately it’s the coach’s decision whether I start. I’m ready, this title means a lot to me, I’m eager to wear the jersey. However, it’s still the coach’s call,” Mbappé said.
Carlo Ancelotti, currently leading the team in commercial matches in the United States, has welcomed the new signing: “In my opinion, the players who helped the team win the Champions League should be in the Super Cup, only Nacho and Kroos are missing.” Both players have left the club.
Seven Real Madrid players were absent from the US training camp: Valverde, Carvajal, Tchouameni, Mbappé, Camavinga, Mendy, and Bellingham. They missed the warm-up matches before the Atalanta game due to their participation in the European Championship or Copa América.
However, according to Marca, the coaching staff has tailored a training plan for them, which has been in place for 15 days before the first training session. This ensures that all players are on an equal footing. “This is different from previous pre-seasons. Now the players are ready to go and can play whenever needed.”
At 25 years old, Mbappé has grown tired of the domestic “small achievements” he has achieved at Paris Saint-Germain. He played alongside Neymar and Messi, aiming to establish a European dynasty, but this dream ultimately went unrealized. Despite having a star-studded squad, they were consistently unable to win the Champions League, as the rest of the squad couldn’t provide enough support for the superstars to overcome strong opponents. At Real Madrid, Mbappé hopes to achieve his dream of winning the Champions League and the Ballon d’Or, as the team boasts both overall strength and team unity.
