Real Madrid's chances of winning UCL with Mbappe

Mbappe has won virtually all the trophies in his club career except the UEFA Champions League. He missed last season's final after PSG lost to Borussia Dortmund in the semi-finals.

The closest he got to winning the UCL was the 2020 edition when he led the Ligue 1 giants to the final, but a lone goal from Kingsley Coman won the trophy for Bayern Munich.

In an interview with YEN.com.gh, Nigerian sports journalist Pedro Peter believes Real Madrid will always be favourites to win the Champions League, but signing Mbappe this summer makes them stronger and increases their chances of successfully defending the title.

"In every season, Real Madrid are always one of the heavyweights tipped to win European club football's greatest prize," he said.
