Everyone knows that Real Madrid is the king of Europe. It is very difficult for any club to match their performance, especially now that Real Madrid has a French star player who will make Real Madrid stronger than before, so I think other clubs will have even more difficulty thwarting that club's efforts to win the title again.
Even Man City and Bayern Munich will definitely have difficulty beating these main rivals, but yes, I also want to see a club that can surprise so that the competition looks exciting and can prove that a club studded with star players can still be beaten.
Real Madrid are the "kings of Europe" for a reason. They usually deliver and get Kylian Mbappe? Major game-changer. That beast is a world-class player who will make Real a threat in every competition, notably the Champions League, where they've been dominating. Madrid isn't unbeatable. Football's unpredictable. More clubs, more games, and a new Champions League format will change everything. It may give smaller clubs a chance to dethrone Real Madrid. Leicester City won the Premier League as an underdog
