Real Madrid signed Kylian Mbappé this summer as a free agent, and the French star will have fans excited ahead of next season. Many worry that the player will struggle to adapt to the squad who are close and experienced in winning lots of major trophies. Mbappé is one of the best players in the world, and even though he doesn't know most of the players personally, he may have brought up an environment that he used to. Mbappé will be the fourth French player on the squad, as Eduardo Camavinga, Ferland Mendy, and Aurelien Tchouameni are already Real Madrid players. The French stars at Real Madrid play with Mbappé on the French national team, and now, a fifth French player could be heading to the Spanish champions next season as a free agent. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Real Madrid is keeping an eye on Adrien Rabiot as a free agent. The French midfielder's contract with Juventus expires on June 30th, and he is not expected to renew his contract with the Italian giants. This could upset some fans since there may be more French players than Spanish players on the squad.

Diario AS reports that if Dani Ceballos leaves, Rabiot will be an option. His contract with Juventus ends this month, and it doesn't look like he will renew. It is rumored that Ceballos will leave Real Madrid this summer as well, but the number of Spanish players in the squad will be reduced. Rabiot will be the fifth French player in the team and Real Madrid will have five Spanish players if Ceballos leaves.

Nacho Fernandez is likely to leave Real Madrid this summer, and he is close to making a move to Saudi Arabia. That would be four Spanish players in the first team of the Real Madrid squad. Fran Garcia, Lucas Vasquez, Dani Carvajal, and Joselu will be the remaining Spanish players on the squad.
