Kylian Mbappe is poised for a possible debut with Real Madrid as they gear up to face Atalanta in the Super Cup on Wednesday. However, head coach Carlo Ancelotti remains tight-lipped on whether the newly-signed forward will start the game.
Mbappe, 25, arrived in Madrid last week to commence training following his free transfer in June, which concluded a long-standing transfer saga. 'Mbappe has arrived well, just like the other players who joined last week,' Ancelotti disclosed during a Tuesday press conference.
Ancelotti confirmed the team has had minimal training time but praised Mbappe's current form and adaptability. He hinted that all players, including Mbappe, are in good shape and might play. The coach also stated that penalty-taking duties would only be assigned to a starting player, and noted the team's array of proficient penalty takers.
