An already important meeting for Carlo Ancelotti and his players who want to start the season well. However, despite his XXL squad with the arrivals of Kylian Mbappé and Endrick, Carlo Ancelotti does not want to cry victory too quickly.
For the Italian manager, Atalanta has every chance in this game. The former AC Milan coach is wary of this Italian team. It will be difficult, as always, because it is the beginning of the season. But we go there with all the confidence and conviction, taking into account all the difficulties. I think Atalanta deserve to be there, because they had an incredible campaign in the Europa League, eliminating top teams like Liverpool. They were able to win these kinds of games with ease, even the final. So we have a lot of respect for this team. But we hope to be at our best,” he said in remarks transcribed by Relevo.
Mbappé to start against Atalanta?
This Wednesday, the entire football world will have its eyes glued to this Real Madrid – Atalanta. All observers are eagerly awaiting the debut of Kylian Mbappé in his new colours. Real Madrid’s new number 9 should make his debut with the Casa Blanca against the Italians.
And it is very likely that he will be lined up from the start by his coach. According to the various echoes, Ancelotti should return to a 4-3-3 system. The Frenchman could start the game at the forefront of the attack alongside Vinicius and Rodrygo.
