Kylian Mbappe to start from the bench?
Ancelotti will likely stick with the core of last season's Champions League-winning squad, suggesting that new signings like Endrick and Kylian Mbappé might not start.
His priority seems to be maintaining the stability of a proven lineup:
“You have to consider the players who won the Champions League,” Ancelotti recently stated.
With Toni Kroos and Nacho having departed this summer, Eder Militao is expected to step in for Nacho, while Luka Modrić, who has impressed on the US tour, is likely to take Kroos's place
Meanwhile, according to Football Espana, Modrić and Carvajal could become the players with the most UEFA Super Cup titles.
Vinicius opens up about partnership with Mbappe
Briefly News also reported that Vinicius Jr eagerly anticipates playing alongside Mbappe in the upcoming 2024/25 season.
The Brazilian winger envisions a powerful trio with Mbappe and Rodrygo de Goes, drawing comparisons to the iconic BBC partnership of Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Discussing Mbappe's arrival, the 23-year-old described the potential partnership as 'brutal' for Real Madrid's attack under Carlo Ancelotti.
