Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti warned about not being too critical with players like Erling Haaland or Kylian Mbappé two soccer players who have been linked with the merengue team, after the poor performance that both cracks left in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League, which has been taken by many as a nod from the Italian strategist towards two of the biggest desires of the madridista fans.

"The truth is that these big stars in the first game have not reached their maximum level but there are other games. Watch out for this, for Haaland, for Mbappé and for Bellingham," assured Ancelotti, who added that these types of players must be given patience. In that sense, it is worth noting that these three players have the highest market value according to the Transfermarkt portal, as they are valued at 180 million euros each and it is incredible to think that at some point they could share a dressing room in Spain.

And the fact is that Haaland and Mbappé were harshly criticized for underperforming against Real Madrid and FC Barcelona respectively. On the one hand, the Norwegian striker barely made one shot in the entire match and could only complete six passes, while the French star could only make three shots and only one of them was goal-bound. He also fell 3 times offside and to top it off his dribbling success rate was just 20% completing only 1 of 5.

Can Mbappé and Haaland play together at Real Madrid?

It seems that, financially speaking, Real Madrid would be the only team in Spain that could manage to have both Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé in the same team. La Liga president Javier Tebas stated as much in February 2023 when he said that "those players (Mbappé and Haaland) can only play for Real Madrid because Barcelona's situation would not allow them to sign these players." According to El Periódico de España, "Barcelona's economic situation remains delicate and highly concentrated on financial fair play or debt, currently valued at €1,172 million."
