Real Madrid made a strong statement in the European transfer market, not only with the dazzling acquisition of French forward <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> but also by securing the services of one of the latest South American jewels, Brazilian forward <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/endrick">Endrick</a>.



The young prospect, who began his professional football career wearing the colors of Palmeiras, quickly caught the eye of Europe’s giants. However, he ultimately chose <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a>, which secured his transfer even before he turned 18.



Naturally, one of the first questions asked of players who are just starting their professional football careers is about their biggest role models or who their greatest idols have been throughout their lives.



In a recent interview, Endrick surprisingly answered this question by mentioning two names that caught many people’s attention. The first is none other than former Real Madrid star <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>. The Portuguese multiple Ballon d’Or winner is one of Endrick’s biggest role models.

Perhaps the most striking aspect of his response is his second source of inspiration: the Brazilian forward named English legend Bobby Charlton as one of his role models.



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">🇧🇷🎙️ Endrick when asked who are his childhood idols. “Cristiano and Bobby Charlton.”<a href="https://t.co/sfIlpkU5nL">pic.twitter.com/sfIlpkU5nL</a>— All Things Brazil™ 🇧🇷 (@SelecaoTalk) <a href="https://twitter.com/SelecaoTalk/status/1819842432390881404?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 3, 2024</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



<h2>Sir Bobby Charlton: Endrick’s idol</h2>



While it might seem unusual for someone as young as Endrick to name Charlton as one of his idols (the English player was active between the 1950s and 1970s), this is not the first time the Brazilian has mentioned the former Manchester United star.



After a friendly match played earlier this year at Wembley between Brazil and England, Endrick remarked following the game: “A guy who is an idol here [at Wembley Stadium] is also Bobby Charlton. Playing in the stadium that Bobby played, scoring on the day Ronaldo debuted. These are very important memories for me.”



<h2>Endrick and the impressions he made at Real Madrid</h2>



Although he will need to secure a spot in a lineup that includes Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo, and Vinicius Jr., forward Endrick has received high praise from his coach, Carlo Ancelotti: 



“He’s very fast, very dangerous in tight spaces, has the ability to turn with speed in little space, very agile in getting himself free, and all these qualities he has means he’s a great talent,” stated Ancelotti in the BBC Sport interview. “It’s rare to see a player with these types of characteristics.”

Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti has shed light on why Eden Hazard, once touted as “<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo’s</a> successor,” failed to reach expectations at Real Madrid. Speaking on Obi Mikel’s podcast, Ancelotti offered insights into the challenges Hazard faced during his time with the Spanish giants.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/eden-hazard">Eden Hazard</a>, who became Real Madrid’s most expensive signing, never lived up to the hype. The Belgian winger, who joined from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chelsea">Chelsea</a> with high hopes, terminated his contract over a year ago with one season left, and subsequently retired from professional soccer at the age of 32. 



Hazard’s stint at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> saw him score just seven goals and provide three assists in 76 official matches—a stark contrast to his stellar performances for Chelsea and the Belgian national team.



<h2>Carlo Ancelotti explains the reasons behind Hazard’s failure</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> delved into the reasons behind Hazard’s struggles during his appearance on “The Obi One Podcast.” Asked by former Chelsea midfielder Obi Mikel about Hazard’s spell at Real Madrid, Ancelotti responded candidly.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/28062805/eden-hazard-real-madrid-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-154097" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Eden Hazard of Real Madrid scores their team’s first goal from the penalty spot during the UEFA Champions League Group B stage match between FC Inter and Real Madrid. Valerio Pennicino/Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



“Eden is a fantastic guy. He was really enthusiastic and had a good relationship with everyone,” Ancelotti began. “I think the problem was injuries, of course, but also the fact that he had a hard time being in competition. He didn’t like to train. We knew this. But listen, when you play every three days, it’s not important to train intensely. You are not able to train at a high intensity. In fact, when you have to train with intensity, it’s when you’re not playing.”



Ancelotti continued, “At Lille, he played everything. In every game, he was in the eleven. Then he signed for Chelsea and played fantastic, and then he got injured here. When you are at Real Madrid and you have an injury, you have to come back and be competitive with the others. Because if you don’t play, there is someone else who is playing. That’s why I think he had difficulties competing, fighting, and playing.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> and Barcelona will play a new edition of El Clasico in a preseason friendly at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. However, Carlo Ancelotti will not be able to count on Frenchman <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a>, who recently joined the Spanish team.



The reason why Kylian Mbappe will not play against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a> is because the Frenchman did not travel with Real Madrid to play pre-season friendlies in the United States.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> believes it’s best for the French forward to continue his rest after an intense season with Paris Saint–Germain and his participation with the French national team in the UEFA Euro 2024.



Real Madrid lost against Milan 1-0, in their last preseason friendly. In that match, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/endrick">Endrick</a> made his long-awaited debut in the Spanish team, and will be looking to add more playing time against Barcelona.

As European giants continue their preparations for the upcoming season, the transfer market remains highly active, with several new faces potentially set to join various clubs.



Without a doubt, the most talked-about transfer of the European summer was <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a>‘s move to Real Madrid. Although it was widely anticipated that the French star would join the Merengues during this transfer window, he has now officially signed and is already under the guidance of coach Carlo Ancelotti.



Mbappé’s arrival, along with Brazilian forward Endrick, has transformed <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> into a global powerhouse. However, it seems the club’s ambitions are far from over. There’s a player willing to forgo part of his salary to join these stars at the Bernabeu, indicating that Real Madrid’s pursuit of greatness is far from complete.



According to Spanish newspaper AS, a central defender currently playing alongside <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> at Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia has reached out to his agent to expedite his departure from the club. This move comes in response to Real Madrid’s interest in signing him before his contract with the Saudi club expires.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/28062844/Aymeric-Laporte-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Aymeric Laporte Al Nassr" class="wp-image-153927" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Aymeric Laporte of Al-Nassr looks on as he lines up prior to the Riyadh Season Cup Final match between Al Hilal and Al-Nassr at Kingdom Arena on February 08, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.</figcaption></figure>



The central defender in question is none other than Aymeric Laporte. The player, fresh off winning the Euro 2024 with Spain, has requested to expedite his departure due to his difficulty adjusting to life in Saudi Arabia. Laporte is reportedly willing to forgo the remainder of his contract and significantly reduce his salary to make a move to Real Madrid.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" use="ALSO" link="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/why-is-kylian-mbappe-not-traveling-to-the-u-s-tour-with-real-madrid" image="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.bolavip.com%2Fwebp%2Fen%2Ffull%2FBUS_20240728_BUS_151535_kylian-mbappe-real-madrid-1-1.webp&amp;width=200&amp;height=200" excerpt="Kylian Mbappe will miss the pre season friendlies with Real Madrid in the United States.
" title="Why is Kylian Mbappe not traveling to the U.S. tour with Real Madrid?" publication_id="BUS#/soccer/why-is-kylian-mbappe-not-traveling-to-the-u-s-tour-with-real-madrid"></div>


<h2>What is Aymeric Laporte’s situation at Al Nassr?</h2>



The central defender has two years remaining on his contract in Saudi Arabia, but reports indicate that he hasn’t been fully satisfied with the league and is seeking an exit. The prospect of joining Real Madrid appeals to him, and he is one of the players Carlo Ancelotti is closely considering.



The player is so eager to join Real Madrid that salary is not a concern. He signed a three-year contract with Al Nassr worth €24 million per year. While Real Madrid is not prepared to match that salary, Laporte is willing to significantly reduce his wages. Additionally, he would forgo the €48 million remaining on his contract with the Saudi club.



<h2>Carlo Ancelotti and his thoughts on the squad</h2>



Although Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti recently expressed satisfaction with the current squad in a press conference, he also gave a positive nod to the potential arrival of Aymeric Laporte at Real Madrid.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/28062833/Carlo-Ancelotti-1-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="Carlo Ancelotti Real Madrid" class="wp-image-153956" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Carlo Ancelotti, Manager of Real Madrid, looks on prior to the LaLiga Santander match between Cadiz CF and Real Madrid CF at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on April 15, 2023 in Cadiz, Spain.</figcaption></figure>



Laporte would complete the central defense lineup alongside Militao, Rüdiger, Alaba, and Vallejo. However, the Austrian defender, who is still recovering from a knee injury, is not expected to be available for Ancelotti until at least November.

As <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> gears up for the new season, their preparations have already seen some ups and downs. In their opening friendly, they suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to AC Milan, highlighting the need for tactical adjustments ahead of their next big challenge.



The focus now shifts to one of the year’s most anticipated fixtures: El Clasico against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/barcelona">Barcelona</a>. Scheduled for Saturday, August 3, at 7:00 PM ET at MetLife Stadium in the United States, this showdown is poised to be a significant test for the Spanish giants.



According to Spanish sports daily Marca, Real Madrid manager <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> has already finalized his lineup for the clash, without their star forward <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> who didn’t travel with the team to the U.S tour.



<h2>Carlo Ancelotti’s lineup decisions</h2>



Ancelotti’s selection has sparked debate among Spanish media, with differing predictions about the final lineup. Nevertheless, Brazilian talents <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/endrick">Endrick</a> and Rodrygo are expected to play prominent roles.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/28062932/endrick-debut-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-153658" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Endrick dribbles the ball during the game between Real Madrid and AC Milan. IMAGO / Sports Press Photo</figcaption></figure>



Marca reports that Ancelotti is likely to field the following starting eleven: Thibaut Courtois; Lucas Vazquez, Antonio Rüdiger, Eder Militão, Fran Garca; Luka Modric, Mario Martin, Dani Ceballos; Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior, and Endrick.



Conversely, Relevo suggests potential changes, including Brahim Diaz stepping in for Vinicius Junior and Arda Güler replacing Mario Martin. Despite these variations, the core of the lineup remains consistent with Marca’s forecast.

In a recent interview, Ancelotti praised the performance of several players throughout the season. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/vinicius">Vinicius Junior</a>, with his overflowing talent and decisive goals, has been a fundamental piece in Real Madrid’s successes. For his part,<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jude-bellingham"> Jude Bellingham</a> has shown surprising maturity and footballing quality for his age, becoming a key player in the Whites’ midfield.



Similarly, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> brings speed, overflow, goal, and a great ability to unbalance matches. His arrival further strengthens Real Madrid’s attack, which already has outstanding players.



<h2>Who is the player chosen by Carlo Ancelotti to win the Ballon d’Or?</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> on the podcast of John Obi Mikel, Ancelotti’s former Chelsea player, expressed his favoritism for a Madrid player to win the Ballon d’Or. “For me, Vinicius deserves the Ballon d’Or… He will win it, that’s my opinion,” Ancelotti said. The Italian coach highlighted the impact of the Brazilian in the Champions League, where his performance was key to winning the title.

<h2>The Battle for the Ballon d’Or Intensifies</h2>



The competition for the Ballon d’Or is fiercer than ever. Players such as Karim Benzema and Luka Modric have already lifted this trophy in the Real Madrid shirt, but now it is the turn of a new generation of talent.



Vinicius, with his explosive style of play and his ability to unbalance matches, is Ancelotti’s great favorite. However, Bellingham is not far behind. His arrival at Real Madrid has been a resounding success, and his adaptation to the team has been impressive.



Other players such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/manchester-city">Manchester City</a>‘s Rodri are also being mentioned as possible candidates for the Ballon d’Or. However, Real Madrid’s hegemony in recent seasons, added to the exceptional performances of Vinicius and Bellingham, places the Whites in a privileged position.



<h2>Ancelotti, a historic coach at Real Madrid</h2>



Carlo Ancelotti is leaving an indelible mark on the history of Real Madrid. With his arrival, the white team has regained its enthusiasm and has once again been the protagonist of European football. The Italian has become one of the most successful coaches in the club’s history, and his continuity on the Merengue bench is a guarantee of success.

In 2017, Real Madrid had a phenomenal year, dominating both Spain and Europe under coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/zinedine-zidane">Zinedine Zidane</a>, capturing five trophies, including the Champions League with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> as the big figure. Among the stars of that team was a young talent on the verge of breaking records, who now faces a very different reality.



At just 16 years old, Moha Ramos earned a spot on the first team due to injuries to Keylor Navas and Luca Zidane. He was on the bench for 10 matches across various competitions like the Club World Cup and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/champions-league">Champions League</a>. If Kiko Casilla had been unavailable, Ramos might have become the youngest goalkeeper in Real Madrid’s history.



However, his career trajectory took a downturn, leading him to lower divisions and now, prison. The former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> academy player was arrested in Lanzarote, where he was set to play his next match with Tenerife B. The Superior Court of Justice of the Canary Islands reported that the Penal Court No. 7 made the decision to incarcerate him.



Now 24, Ramos was sentenced for drunk driving and two counts of causing injury. His imprisonment comes after the revocation of a suspended sentence due to his failure to appear at a court summons in Madrid.

IMAGO / ANP</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Moha Ramos’ career post-Real Madrid</h2>



After leaving Real Madrid, the Spanish goalkeeper sought playing time first in Birmingham in 2019 but did not find the spotlight needed to propel his career. He returned to Spain, playing for Real Unión, Racing de Santander, and Real Avilés. Ramos then moved to Las Palmas B and currently plays for Tenerife’s second team, although he has yet to make his debut in LaLiga.

After being one of the most important signings in Real Madrid’s history, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> will become the youngest soccer club owner in history after becoming a shareholder in a European club.



According to Le Parisien, Mbappe, 25, will acquire 80% of Caen’s Stade Malherbe through his investment fund Coalition Capital. The club is currently playing in France’s Ligue 2. The purchase, valued at around €20 million, will make him one of the youngest club owners in Europe.



Pierre-Antoine Capton, the current President of the Supervisory Board, will retain a 20% minority stake. Capton, founder of Troisième Oeil Productions and Chairman of Mediawan’s Board of Directors, had previously announced the departure of the American investment fund Oaktree in 2020, stating they were there to save the club and now aimed to recoup their investment.



Mbappe’s investment in Stade Malherbe de Caen is particularly significant given his history with the club. At the age of 13, he nearly signed with Caen but ultimately chose AS Monaco. Now, at 25, Mbappe’s return to the club, albeit in a different capacity, marks a full-circle moment.

Kylian Mbappe did not travel to the U.S. tour with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> and is expected to play his first match in the European Super Cup, in the clash between the winner of the Champions League (Real Madrid) and the winner of the Europa League (Atalanta) on August 14 in Warsaw.



A few days later, the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/psg">PSG</a> striker will be able to make his debut in LaLiga, in the first match against Mallorca, at the Son Moix Stadium, on August 18.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/endrick">Endrick</a> has just arrived at Real Madrid and is already confronting a peculiar “curse” that has plagued players like James Rodriguez and Brazilian Lucas Silva during their time in the Spanish capital.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> officially presented Endrick as their newest addition on Saturday, July 27th, at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Approximately 43,000 fans gathered to witness the unveiling of what many consider the future of Brazilian football.



Endrick, who has already begun training under <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> and is with the team through the U.S. tour, will don the number 16 jersey, a number considered cursed by Madridistas. The player wearing this number has historically struggled to make an impact at the club.



<h2>The curse of the number 16 jersey</h2>



Over the past decade, no Real Madrid player wearing the number 16 has found success. The string of failures began with Brazilian Lucas Silva and continued with notable names like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-rodriguez">James Rodriguez</a>, Borja Mayoral, Luka Jovic, and Alvaro Odriozola.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/28063543/endrick-jersey-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-151632" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Real Madrid new signing, Endrick with number 16 jersey. Angel Martinez/Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



Luka Jovic, one of the Top 10 most expensive signings in Real Madrid’s history, was initially brought in to be the future number 9. However, he failed to live up to expectations and is no longer with the club. Many fans attribute his struggles to the infamous number 16.



The number 16 jersey has gained such a notorious reputation that in recent seasons, no player has chosen to wear it, until Endrick. The young Brazilian chose this number to honor his former club, Palmeiras, showing a bold and fearless attitude.

Despite the so-called curse, Real Madrid fans are optimistic about Endrick’s potential in Madrid. They believe that his courageous choice of the number 16 could break the streak of bad luck and lead to a successful career at the Bernabeu.

Despite the excitement of Real Madrid fans eager to see <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> don the white jersey in preseason friendlies, the French superstar will not be traveling to the United States. His debut with the Spanish club will have to wait.



The reason why Mbappe will miss the pre-season is because Real Madrid authorities in agreement with head coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> believe it is best for the French forward to continue his rest after an intense season with Paris Saint–Germain and his participation with the French national team in the UEFA Euro 2024.



Mbappe is not the only player staying back in Europe. Other Real Madrid players in similar situations will also not join the U.S. tour, including Ferland Mendy, Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jude-bellingham">Jude Bellingham</a>, Dani Carvajal, and Federico Valverde.



These players are expected to report to the Ciudad Deportiva de Valdebebas training facilities next week to begin preparations for the 2024/2025 season. This season, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> will compete in seven different competitions, these are LaLiga, Copa del Rey, the Spanish Super Cup, the European Super Cup, the UEFA Champions League, the Intercontinental Cup and the Club World Cup.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>, despite not currently being at Real Madrid, remains an iconic figure for the club and millions of fans around the world. His time with the white team was marked by sporting successes and a spectacular style of play that inspired an entire generation of footballers.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> is one of the biggest and most prestigious clubs in the world. Its history, full of titles and legends, attracts the best players on the planet. The opportunity to be part of this sporting project and to write his history in such an emblematic club is a dream for any footballer.



Endrick’s arrival at Real Madrid has been one of the most outstanding news in the transfer market. The young Brazilian, considered one of the greatest promises in world football, has decided to make the leap to Europe and wear the white shirt.



<h2>Cristiano Ronaldo: The reason for Endrick’s signing for Real Madrid</h2>



The Brazilian <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/endrick">Endrick</a>, like many other young talents, grew up watching Cristiano Ronaldo play football. The Portuguese became a reference for him, an example to follow both on and off the field. The possibility of following in the footsteps of his idol and playing in the same stadium where he shone was a determining factor in his decision to sign for Real Madrid.

Paris 2024: The Handball Rule proposed to apply in soccer

Cristiano Ronaldo was a key factor for a new big Real Madrid signing - Bolavip US

The arrival of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a> at Real Madrid has generated enormous expectations in the world of football. The French striker, considered one of the best players in the world, joins a team full of talent and has an ambitious sporting project. However, his integration into Carlo Ancelotti’s game scheme will not be an easy task.



The French striker, along with Vinicius, Rodrygo, and Bellingham, will form a dream attack at <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a>. However, for this quartet to work perfectly, it will be necessary for the players to quickly adapt to Ancelotti’s system of play and find the best way to complement each other on the pitch.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a> has been clear about this: mobility and versatility will be fundamental in Real Madrid’s attack. With the arrival of Mbappe, the team will have four top-level strikers, each with different characteristics and skills. However, the Italian coach wants his players to be able to adapt to various positions and game situations.



<h2>What is the role that Kylian Mbappe will have at Real Madrid?</h2>



The ability to adapt to different tactical situations is one of Real Madrid’s great strengths. Ancelotti has proven to be a master at crafting specific game plans for each opponent. “I want to give them freedom. They have to have the ability to control the situations that arise during the game,” said the Italian coach. This tactical flexibility will allow Real Madrid to surprise their opponents and find spaces in the tightest defenses.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/07/28063740/Kylian-Mbappe-9-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-150927" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Real Madrid new signing, Kylian Mbappe is unveiled by Florentino Perez Rodriguez, President of Real Madrid at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on July 16, 2024 in Madrid, Spain.

“The important key to the attack is the mobility of the players. Sometimes they can play on the left, sometimes in the center,” said Ancelotti. This philosophy of play was reflected last season, where players such as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/vinicius">Vinicius Jr</a>. and Rodrygo Goes showed a great ability to move throughout the attacking front. With the addition of Mbappe and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jude-bellingham">Jude Bellingham</a>, Real Madrid will have an even more fluid and dynamic attack.



<h2>Real Madrid’s pre-season and the first challenges</h2>



Real Madrid began their preseason in the United States in the absence of Mbappe, who is on vacation after the European Championship. However, the team is already working on the set-up to face the first challenges of the season. The European Super Cup will be the first big test for Ancelotti’s team, and Mbappe is expected to be integrated into the group for this important match.

Real Madrid pushes to sign Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr teammate in bid to build super team

Carlo Ancelotti reveals Kylian Mbappe's role at Real Madrid - Bolavip US

Real Madrid, always looking to strengthen their squad and consolidate their position as one of the most powerful teams not only in Spain but in Europe, have set their sights on a teammate from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>‘s Al Nassr.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/carlo-ancelotti">Carlo Ancelotti</a>, Real Madrid’s coach, has identified this player as the ideal signing to strengthen the defense. The experienced defender, who has shown his quality in teams such as Athletic Bilbao and Manchester City, would fit perfectly into the Italian coach’s game scheme. His ability to play in the air, his ball output and his leadership would be a great asset for the white team.



However, the signing will not be easy. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/al-nassr">Al-Nassr</a>, the club to which the player belongs, has no intention of letting him escape. The Saudi team made a significant investment to get the services of the Spanish center-back and considers him a fundamental piece in their sporting project.



<h2>Who is the player that Real Madrid wants to sign?</h2>



This is <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/aymeric-laporte">Aymeric Laporte</a>, the Spanish center-back who currently plays for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia. However, signing Laporte will not be an easy task. Al-Nassr, the club to which the player belongs, is not willing to part with one of its defensive pillars without a very juicy offer.

<h2>Real Madrid looking to build a super team</h2>



The incorporation of Laporte would be another step in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a>‘s strategy to build a team capable of competing at the highest level and fighting for all titles. With the arrival of the Spanish center-back, the Whites would have an even more solid and competitive defense, which would allow them to face the challenges of next season with guarantees.
