Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid, the story starts slowly. Although he was presented with great fanfare on July 16th in the packed Santiago Bernabeu stadium, with no fewer than 80,000 members already won over to his cause, the French striker will wait to thrill the demanding Madrid public under the legendary Merengue jersey.
Euro 2024 requires that Kylian Mbappé is barely two weeks into his vacation while his new teammates are flying to the United States for a lucrative pre-season tour. He is therefore allowed to extend his vacation a little, like his compatriots Aurélien Tchouaméni, Ferland Mendy and Eduardo Camavinga.
Resumption on August 6, for a first in the European Super Cup?
The White House’s agreement also applies to the Englishman Jude Bellingham, who played in the final of the European Nations Championship with the Three Lions, beaten by Spain (2-1). The same goes for the defender of the Roja Dani Carvajal. All these great people are finally expected in Madrid on August 6.
Brazilians Vinicius, Rodrygo and Eder Militao, defeated by Federico Valverde’s Uruguay in the quarter-finals of the Copa America, are expected in the United States to participate in the training camp with a few extra days off. In its American preparation, Real Madrid must face AC Milan on 1er August, Barça on the 4th and Chelsea on the 7th. The European Super Cup, in Poland, is scheduled for August 14th against Atalanta Bergamo. The resumption of La Liga for Carlo Ancelotti’s men is scheduled for August 18th, in Mallorca.
