It's official: Kylian Mbappé is now a Real Madrid player. After passing his medical exams and being presented to the fans at the Santiago Bernabéu, which was packed and full of adoration, anticipation is high.

The exact date of Mbappé’s official debut for Los Blancos is still unknown, though there is speculation it could be in the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta.

However, the big question that generates much excitement is: When will Mbappé play his first El Clásico against Barcelona? Especially after witnessing the duel between the Frenchman and Lamine Yamal during Euro 2024.

This summer, Real Madrid and Barcelona will face off in a preseason match on August 3 in New York, which could be Mbappé's first encounter as a "Blanco" against the "Culés."

The first official clash between the two giants will take place on October 27, during La Liga’s Matchday 11, at the Estadio Lluis Companys, with Barcelona hosting.

Whether it’s in a friendly or official competition, it’s only a matter of time before the Catalans face off against the player who has eliminated them twice from the Champions League as a PSG member (2021 and 2024).
