"Our goal now is to win the treble," Vinicius shared in an interview with CNN, as reported by MadridXtra.

His statement underscores the team's high expectations for the season, driven by the quality of their squad.

These aspirations, while bold, are certainly within reach, given the recent additions to Madrid's lineup.

The squad now boasts talents like Brazilian prodigy Endrick Felipe and former Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe.

These reinforcements, coupled with the club's storied history, make the pursuit of a treble a realistic objective.

Has Real Madrid won the treble before?

Interestingly, the Merengues has never achieved a treble in its illustrious history, a feat that adds extra motivation to their campaign.

The fact that their fierce rivals, FC Barcelona, remain the only Spanish club to have won a treble—accomplishing this twice—only intensifies Madrid's drive.

What is a treble in football?

For those unfamiliar, a treble in football refers to a team winning three major trophies in a single season.

To be considered a 'genuine' treble, these trophies typically include the league title, the main national cup, and a continental title, such as the Champions League.

In some cases, a domestic treble can be achieved by winning the league, the primary national cup, and a secondary cup competition.
