Real Madrid tipped to play 'ridiculous' formation next season with Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham

Real Madrid are basking in the glory of their record-extending 15th European Cup win and there is no sign of their dominance ending any time soon.

Kylian Mbappe is expected to be announced as the club's latest signing on Monday, days after their triumph over Borussia Dortmund at Wembley.

French superstar Mbappe, 25, will join Madrid on a free transfer when his contract with PSG expires at the end of the month.

He is set to sign a five-year deal at the Bernabeu and will reportedly pocket a staggering signing-on bonus of up to £128m for joining the Spanish and European champions.

He's not the only new arrival at the Bernabeu this summer, with Brazilian wonderkid Endrick also joining from Palmeiras.

Real Madrid have also been linked with a move for Bayern Munich full-back Alphonso Davies, as club president Florentino Perez continues to build his new generation of 'Galacticos'.

Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti faces a difficult task of keeping all of his attacking stars happy next season as they look to defend their various titles.

In addition to Mbappe and Endrick, Madrid have the likes of Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr, Federico Valverde, Rodrygo and Arda Guler to accommodate in attack.

Speaking after attending the Champions League final, former Manchester City star Micah Richards believes he's worked out what formation Ancelotti will play next season with his new reinforcements.

When asked on The Rest Is Football podcast which player would have to move central to accommodate Mbappe, Richards said: "I think Vinicius.

"He can do that, running in behind. Whereas Kylian rarely does that. He wants the ball to feet and then…. Vinicius is clever.

"When we've watched Kylian this season, they've put two or three people on him and it's been difficult. Whereas Vinicius has said 'okay, you can mark me' but he then runs in behind.

"Don't forget you've got Endrick to come into the team, who they've bought, and Guler.

"I think they're going to go up top with Vinicius in the middle, Mbappe on the left, Rodrygo on the right and then Bellingham just in behind. It's ridiculous."

To which Gary Lineker joked: "They'll definitely finish in the top half of La Liga!"
