2025 Fantasy Outlook
Mbappe is fresh off the 2024/25 season in which he won the Golden Boot with 31 goals in 34 starts. It didn't lead to trophies, but he scored goals and stayed fairly healthy, which is what he's paid for. Under new manager Xabi Alonso, there will be changes to Real Madrid's formation and style of play, but 30-plus goals are again in play for Mbappe if he can start 30-plus matches. Not many in the league can compete with his output and shot production, which will have him as one of the first players off the draft board once again.
Running on grass Monday
Mbappe (knee) was spotted running on grass Monday during his rehab, according to Madrid Xtra.
ANALYSIS
Mbappe returned to Madrid from Paris on Sunday evening and was already spotted doing running work on grass Monday as he continues his recovery at Valdebebas. The star forward will miss Wednesday's Champions League first-leg clash against Manchester City as the match comes too soon in his recovery timeline, though reports indicate he is pushing hard to be ready for next week's second leg against the Citizens. Until he gets back up to full speed, Gonzalo Garcia is expected to take on a larger role in the Merengues' attack.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Real Madrid to announce move?
Real Madrid are ready to announce the signing of Mbappe before the start of the Euros, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
ANALYSIS
Real Madrid are fresh off winning their 15th Champions League title in club history, but the team is not done when it comes to adding new signings. Pairing Mbappe with the likes of Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo or Jude Bellingham would make Real Madrid even more dangerous than what they were in 2023/24, when they won the league title and the Champions League.
