Following their elimination from the UEFA Champions League at the hands of Bayern Munich, Real Madrid find themselves in second place in La Liga. But beyond the on-field disappointments, unrest appears to be brewing behind closed doors.

According to The Touchline, citing insider Pepe Álvarez, three Madrid players—Marco Asensio, Dani Carvajal, and Álvaro Carreras—allegedly refused to board the team’s trip for the league match against Celta Vigo. Though the report remains unconfirmed, it has already sparked frustration among the club’s supporters.

In the wake of the painful European exit, which left fans reeling, star forward Kylian Mbappé stepped forward to address the public. Rather than retreat from the spotlight, the Frenchman chose to embrace a leadership role during this turbulent stretch, speaking directly to the Madridistas in an effort to lift the team’s spirits.
