Real Madrid has gotten to the top of this tournament last season and they will love to take the trophy once more. I also think they were deliberate about the bringing of Mbappé who will work hard to deliver his dream club. Remember, Real Madrid is still have Ancelotti as its coach and are not ready to relinquish him anytime within the season and I don't think Ancelotti is also interested in leading the club some more times since he understood the squad and knows how well to bring trophies home. This is also a real challenge to other A-list clubs so we can measure their performances side by side.
If it will be wrong to.say it's the dream of many coaches out there to win the champions league as many times as possible is what I really don't know this is because some may be dreaming to win just once and they will be fine but for ancelloti, he wouldn't mind if he gets it every season, the prestigiouness that comes with the trophy is one that one would almost never get tired of. Other than winning the trophy alone Ancelotti would love to set a very high standard with the records before he finally retires. Othe A-list teams are going to throw a challenge at Ancelotti this season, not been able to identify them just yet isn't a problem but they will show up.
