Jose Mourinho, the Real Madrid manager, has expressed the difficulty in fielding a starting lineup that includes Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Jude Bellingham concurrently. However, Mourinho maintained that these three players are not "incompatible". Real Madrid are set to kick off their new LaLiga season with a match against Espanyol, marking Mourinho's return to competitive football following his second spell in charge of the team.
The Spanish giants have been trophy-less for two years since the arrival of Mbappé, who is now a free agent. Vinícius Jr.'s new contract adds another layer to Mourinho's challenge of constructing an attacking lineup around all three stars, including the club's record signing, Yan Diomande. Mourinho acknowledged the tactical complexity, noting how Carlo Ancelotti, Didier Deschamps, and Thomas Tuchel found ideal roles for their respective stars at the World Cup.
Nevertheless, Mourinho remains confident that Real Madrid will perform well when all three players take the field together, expressing no concern over their compatibility.
