After missing France’s last two international breaks, speculation ran wild regarding Kylian Mbappe's relationship with manager Didier Deschamps and whether he would retain his leadership role.

As Real Madrid prepares for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League clash against Manchester City, head coach Carlo Ancelotti has been bolstered by the return of three key players.

Kylian Mbappe’s arrival at Real Madrid last summer has complicated the club’s wage structure, and now it appears that Jude Bellingham wants to be the highest-paid player at Madrid, ahead of both the Frenchman and Vinicius.

Real Madrid is seeking to strengthen its defensive line, recognizing the need for additional depth at center-back. While the club possesses experienced players like Militão, Rüdiger, and Alaba, the age of the latter two and the departure of Vallejo necessitate the addition of a high-quality, young defender.

Manchester City fan group ‘We Are 1894’ has issued a statement denying that the banner was intended for Real Madrid's Vinicius. Instead, they revealed that their real target was someone entirely different.

After the match, Rodri was asked by what he thought of Manchester City fans’ giant banner mocking Real Madrid’s reaction to Vinicius missing out on the Ballon d’Or. His response? A two-word take which Madrid fans won’t like.

Vinicius Jr.'s emphatic rejection of reported Saudi interest and his clear expression of loyalty to Real Madrid underscore his commitment to the club. His focus on continuing his career at Real Madrid, rather than pursuing lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia, further highlights his dedication and ambition to continue his successful career with the Spanish giants.

Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez named Toni Kroos as the club's "signing of the century," a decision that surprisingly overlooks other legendary players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane. This selection highlights Pérez's emphasis on value for money and Kroos's significant contribution to the club's success.

Manchester City’s crowd attempted to get under the skin of Vinicius by chanting, “Where is your Ballon d'Or?”. The Brazilian winger, however, delivered a brilliant and cutting response that left the home fans stunned.

With the second leg set for Wednesday, a lingering 'curse' threatens Manchester City and Pep Guardiola's hopes of a comeback against Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.

In the playoffs game against Real Madrid, Erling Haaland scored a brace for Manchester City, reaching a milestone in the UEFA Champions League.

Fabio Coentrão, a two-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid, has chosen an unexpected path after retiring from football. Instead of pursuing a career within the sport, he has embarked on a new life dedicated to fishing, highlighting the diverse choices athletes make after their playing days.

Ahead of the UEFA Champions League game against Manchester City, Carlo Ancelotti has made a bold tactical decision regarding Real Madrid's lineup.
