His avidity is such that at this time Real Madrid is already late to conceive the 15th.
Some solemn madridista patrician would consider it on the same holiday in Saint-Denis, Mbappé's abode, as much history for now as the 14th European Cup.
Without Mbappé in sight, the Real to his own.
As Jesús García Velasco, the unforgettable grandfather of Majaelrayo (Guadalajara), would say: “And Madrid, what, European champion again?”
The Real had been dry for 30 years, but the popular ad had a crumb.
In the imagination of this rancher on Mars, Madrid triumphed even when they lost.
Shortly after the launch of the
spot
, the long -awaited Séptima arrived, which once again put Madrid into orbit.
Until today.
Although a large sector gives the rattle with Mbappé for months and months.
As if Benzema were a pariah, Modric a jerk and Courtois a pinchaúvas.

The Paris fiasco: no one takes responsibility for the incidents that delayed the Champions League final
The Real is capable of imposing itself above what it is supposedly worth.
To sample this European Cup, which Real Madrid no longer denies for that double draw that altered a light pulse with Benfica for a fencer duel with PSG.
Madrid had lives left to gamble with Chelsea... And another one with Manchester City.
The Liverpool thing was already coming.
Winks of fate for who has won his last eight European Cup finals.
Astounding.
Stars like Mbappé illuminate, of course.
But it is Real who win, as Carlo Ancelotti, the most glorified coach in the Champions League, openly admitted.
"With Madrid it's easier to win, it's a special club".
The contagion of Di Stéfano, armed wing of the cosmic ideology of Santiago Bernabéu, does not doubt Amancio, Butragueño, Raúl or Cristiano, legendary checkpoints in Chamartín.
His imprint is imperishable, but all had, to a greater or lesser extent, a successor.
The one who has never had a replica is the Real, which became legendary in black and white (six crowns) and more illustrious in color (eight golds).
With those of the No-Do, from Puskas to Pirri, and with the most contemporary, from Mijatovic to Vinicius.
In this club, yesterday only refers to tomorrow.
There is no respite when your quintessential password is to win.
Madrid flees from nerds congresses on styles and other bagpipes.
It's your tactic.
If Casillas isn't there, then Courtois.
Longing for Ramos-Varane?
Military and Alaba.
Let CR be angry, so let Benzema thrash.
If the Bale thing is fireworks and Hazard does not pass a review, I fly for Vinicius and Rodrygo.
And don't let Casemiro, Modric and Kroos fall asleep.
Valverde and Camavinga go for more than opening acts.

From the Almudena to the Bernabeu: Real Madrid's celebration, in pictures
The last recruits did not have a galactic carpet upon arrival.
It was suggested that the club was betting on austerity in favor of the cathedral-like work of the Bernabéu.
Meanwhile, another
Orejona
to the basket.
It seemed that Madrid had also put time in parentheses waiting for Mbappé.
Meanwhile, one and another Champions, with Zinedine Zidane and Ancelotti.
One inspired the best of Real Madrid as a player.
The Italian was passing through even with the dying Tenth on the catwalk.
From the club itself, a supporting echo was made to permeate: it is a maula.
Ancelotti was the victim of an entity that does not favor the roots of coaches, a professional association without a high reputation for La Castellana.
At Real, footballers and presidents always prevailed.
For this reason, the return of the Italian caused discomfort, as if he were an interwar poultice.
Another denial.
Ancelotti's folksy has seduced friends, enemies and neutrals.
With his public and unimposed simplicity, he has achieved camaraderie in the locker room and in the stands.
No one guessed badly about the presence of his son in the coaching staff.
As there were no conflicts with investors in Bale and Hazard.
In a dressing room where abs and navels don't show off, even a bloody classic (0-4) had its comeback.
The excellence of the course cannot be understood without Benzema, Courtois, Modric, Vinicius... And, of course, without Ancelotti's mentorship.
Let no one forget: the 14th was in the Paleolithic.
The Fifteenth can't wait.
It is Real Madrid.
