Real Madrid Manager Rejects the Idea of ‘Princes and Kings’ Amid Mbappe’s Anticipated Trophy Celebration in His Debut
Real manager dismisses Mbappe’s feaɾ, saying, “There are no princes or kings here.” The superstar is expected to win a trophy on his debut.
French sensation Kylian Mbappe will see his dreams come true on Thursday morning (5am AEST) when he gets the chance to win a trophy in his Real Madrid debut—the European Super Cup final—after years of building anticipation for a transfer dɾama.
In a long-awaited move that gives a squad that won the Champions League for a record 15 times ten weeks ago a shockingly sharp edge, Mbappe signed a five-year contract after leaving Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer in June.
Mbappe was the mainstay of PSG’s unsuccessful attempt to win the trophy thus far, which has also sapped the abilities of Lionel Messi and Neymar in their quest for the title.
The match in Warsaw, which will be televised live on Stan Sport in Australia, will see Mbappe making his Real Madrid debut against Atalanta, the Europa League winners. Real’s famous manager Carlo Ancelotti admitted as much.
His addition brings even more brilliance to Real Madrid’s ridiculously talented striker lineup, which also includes Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo, Vinícius Júnior, young Brazilian Endrick, and Arda Guler, Turkey’s breakout sensation at the European Championship.
Ancelotti made light of his “huge problem” and claimed that worrying about who would start up front “has ruined my holidays” during a press conference on Wednesday.
Ancelotti stated, “The easiest thing is to understand that good players will always play and will always contribute something.”
We don’t have any issues because there are so many games available. It is unthinkable that I will have to rely on the same 11 players for around 70 games.
Socceroos veteran Mark Bosnich, who will be anchoring the Stan coverage of this game as well as the Champions and Europa League tournaments this season along with Craig Foster and former Fox colleague Adam Peacock, said Mbappe’s involvement in the Super Cup will be “absolutely huge.”
