Having just arrived at Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé will not be idle during his first weeks in the Merengue jersey.
He’s here. As agreed, Kylian Mbappé landed in Madrid on Tuesday. A quiet arrival, the captain of the French team simply announcing it through a photo taken on the airport tarmac, which he then posted as a story on his Instagram account. For him, things will therefore be able to get serious with his first training sessions and, very quickly, his very first match in the Real jersey.
His big debut with the Merengues is scheduled for August 14 for the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta Bergamo, in Warsaw. That leaves him only one week to be ready. After a month of vacation, which he spent in Miami and Los Angeles, getting back into action will inevitably be complicated for the former PSG star, but the hellish schedule that awaits the White House requires him to get back into shape quickly.
A hellish schedule for Kylian Mbappé
Between now and the next international break in early September, Carlo Ancelotti’s players will actually play five matches in nineteen days! Once his first appearance against La Dea has been completed, Kylian Mbappé will face Mallorca (August 18), Valladolid (August 25), Las Palmas (August 29) and Betis Sevilla (1) with his new teammates.er September). Not the biggest teams in La Liga, certainly, but the pace promises to be very sustained.
Will Real Madrid’s Italian coach take advantage of this modest adversity to gradually build up the Blues’ number 10? If he doesn’t want to take any risk of injury with his new star so early in the season, he will have every interest in not overusing him from the start. It’s also up to the former Bondy prodigy to manage himself and not rush things by trying to do too much. Because this 2024-2025 season promises to be intense.
