The Daily Merengue is a place where you can feel free to d all things football. Do not be alarmed by the overt RMCF bias. It’s in the name! Shoutout to the mods who do a fantastic job, Ezek, Valyrian Steel, Kung_Fu_Zizou, Juninho, NeRObutBlanco and yours truly, Felipejack.
Mbappe looks fine
Not a 100%, but fine. He trained with the group and it’s expected to start today’s game.
The player talked about his desire to play:
For us players, it’s the most important thing; playing for the national team is priceless.” “Everything went well in Madrid, the communication was very clear. I have something in my ankle, but I said I wanted to play.
He was also asked about Vini Jr:
My relationship with Viní is good. This year we understand each other even better after a year. Both of us want the same thing, the best for Real Madrid, to win titles
Will Nico Paz return?
CB targets
Real Madrid want to sign a free agent CB in summer 2026. Konaté is the priority, but list also includes, Upamecano and Guéhi. Yeah, Yeah, the old, never ending CB signing rumors. In reality: we already “missed” Saliba, as he decided to renew with Arsenal.
Another analysis
It’s not good as the one from yesterday, but it’s also good and explained what Alonso did well, adjusting the team, for the 2nd half vs Villareal.
