Kylian Mbappe will make his Real Madrid debut in the UEFA Super Cup against Atlanta says Carlo Ancelotti.
After the most anticipated transfer the world awaits to see the star signing Mbappe in action and Carlo Ancelotti confirms that the excitement is high to witness Los Blanco’s new number nine against Atlanta on August 15th in the UEFA Super Cup. The French forward is on an extended break after Les Bleus’s semi-final exit in the Euro 2024.
With the Real Madrid squad currently in America for the pre-season tour, the legs for the upcoming campaign are being strengthened. Opening game disappointments with back-to-back defeats keep Ancelotti unfazed by the results, prioritizing the importance of building up player fitness ahead of the season.
The team is set to face Chelsea on August 9th in the last game of pre-season ahead of the travel to Warsaw for the Super Cup final later this week. The USA tour squad was without Mbappe due to his resting period to keep him 100% fit ahead of Real Madrid’s high-profile clash against Atalanta.
“Mbappe can obviously play in the Super Cup from the start. Jude Bellingham too and others. They are prepared, they have followed a plan and will all play,” Ancelotti stated, as per reports by Mundo Deportivo. These words have increased fans’ excitement to see Mbappe in the famous white colour.
Real Madrid will kick off their La Liga title defense against away to Mallorca on August 18 after the Super Cup. The club’s preseason and early competitive fixtures will provide a vital chance for the team’s new signings to adapt the tone for the season ahead.
