At the National Stadium in Warsaw, the Champions League champions play Atalanta, the winners of the Europa League the previous year. Mbappe will be hoping to win his first prize as a Madrid player right away.
The Frenchman was revealed as a Madrid player last month, although he hasn’t played for the team yet because he was given time off after his role in Euro 2024.
But there’s a good possibility he starts here with Mbappe presumably leading the line and Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo providing wide support.
Due to the Euros, Jude Bellingham has also had a restricted preseason, but he is still expected to start, reports Standard
Since Real Madrid defeated Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League final, Nacho and Toni Kroos have departed the team, although Eder Militao and Aurelien Tchouameni are capable of starting in their stead.
Atalanta has added Ben Godfrey from Everton and Nicolo Zaniolo on loan from Roma. Charles De Ketelaere became a permanent member of the team earlier this summer.
Gianluca Scamacca, who injured his anterior cruciate ligament during the preseason will not be starting at the top of the line.
Teun Koopmeiners will not play because, according to Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini, the midfield player has missed training in an effort to sign a contract with Juventus.
