WHAT HAPPENED?
Over several years, the Spanish Titans have endeavored to entice France international Mbappe to Santiago Bernabeu. It has been verified that the World Cup winner will depart Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent and relocate to Spain.
WHAT CARVAJAL SAID
His arrival is already generating plenty of excitement in Madrid, with long-serving Real star Carvajal telling AS of getting another superstar on board: “A layer of his stature is going to give us a lot; and I think that by wearing our shirt, surrounded by outstanding players, he will make us candidates for everything again. Hopefully, that will be the case, and we will continue to win titles.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Mbappe, along with his new teammates Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham, is regarded as a potential candidate for the 2024 Ballon d'Or. There have been rumors that Carvajal could be considered for the Golden Ball if Spain wins Euro 2024. The Liga and Champions League champion stated, "I don't even think about it." In addition to scoring the goal in the Champions League final, I have also had a fantastic year in attack. I may be included on the shortlist if I perform well at the European Championship and we emerge victorious. It would not be absurd.
"The most challenging aspect is scoring goals; it is the most critical." Vinicius and Bellingham have had an exceptional year; however, Mbappe will be considered a contender if France secures the European Championship. I am not even considering it. I am considering advancing as far as possible in the European Championship and, if feasible, reaching the final in Berlin.
What is the next step?
Spain, France, and England have all advanced to the last 16 of Euro 2024, granting them a chance at the ultimate prize. Meanwhile, Vinicius and Brazil have begun their pursuit of Copa America triumph in the United States and will be confident that they can also secure a continental crown.
