Kylian Mbappe debut incoming! New Real Madrid signing STARTS UEFA Super Cup alongside Jude Bellingham as Carlo Ancelotti fields insanely attacking line-up against Atalanta

Mbappe will start alongside Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr. in the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta on Wednesday evening. The Frenchman therefore makes his highly-anticipated debut after joining the reigning European champions from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.

Carlo Ancelotti has named an attacking line-up that features Mbappe, Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo and Bellingham.

Real Madrid XI vs Atalanta: Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Rudiger, Mendy; Valverde, Tchouameni, Bellingham; Rodrygo, Mbappe, Vinicius Jr.

So we're about to get our first glimpse of Mbappe in a Real Madrid shirt. The entire football world is eager to see how the 25-year-old fares in the Spanish capital: can Los Blancos become even better, or is there a risk that he actually makes them worse? But don't be surprised if he makes a slow start to life as a Galactico; Mbappe missed all of Real's pre-season due to an extended break after Euro 2024.

Real are aiming to win the UEFA Super Cup for the sixth time in their history when they face Europa League winners Atalanta in Warsaw. There's little time for rest after this fixture; Ancelotti's side begin the defence of their La Liga title against Mallorca on Sunday.
