Mbappé Has a Message for Lamine Yamal and Barcelona About Real Madrid
French forward Kylian Mbappé, sidelined for the 2026 Supercopa de España with Real Madrid due to a knee sprain, sent a message of motivation to his teammates after staying in the Spanish capital and not traveling to Jeddah. The star confirmed that he trusts the team “1,000%” to win the title.
“Good luck team! I trust 1,000%, we’re going to succeed. Hala Madrid! Let’s go for the Supercopa!” wrote Mbappé on his official Instagram account, accompanied by a photo of the squad posing with the plane headed to Saudi Arabia.
Real Madrid will face Atlético de Madrid this Thursday in the second semifinal of the Supercopa de España, a tournament that Barcelona and Athletic Club will kick off a day earlier. Mbappé’s absence marks his second consecutive match out due to the knee sprain, a blow for the team as they aim for their first trophy of the year.
