Mbappe sets the debut date for Real Madrid, playing the first match before EURO

Posted by

Kylian Mbappe urgently prepares for his summer move to Real Madrid. The French star is expected to make his debut with the new team before embarking on the EURO 2024 journey.

The EURO 2024 finals kick off on June 14 and conclude on July 14, spanning a month-long event. Prior to that, national teams have gathered and are preparing for the biggest football celebration in Europe.

Mbappe eager for an early debut at Real Madrid

Therefore, Kylian Mbappe aims to expedite the process of joining Real Madrid. According to Marca, the French forward has finalized his contract with the Spanish royal club, awaiting an official announcement after the conclusion of the 2023/24 season. If PSG is eliminated from the Champions League early, an official announcement will be made by the parties involved.

In particular, Mbappe desires a grandiose unveiling ceremony as a ‘marquee signing.’ The 2018 World Cup champion has requested Real Madrid to introduce him in a manner similar to Cristiano Ronaldo’s introduction in 2009. Naturally, Real has agreed to this wish, considering it as the club’s most significant signing in a decade.

To mitigate potential risks during his participation in the EURO 2024 finals with the French national team, Mbappe needs a debut match. It will be a friendly match, where the ‘Golden Boy’ of French football officially debuts for the Madridistas.

However, all of this is part of the plan and depends on the practicalities of the situation. In the event that Real Madrid or PSG advances far, perhaps even reaching the Champions League final this season, it would be challenging for the Real Madrid leadership to organize Mbappe’s debut match in time.
