The new Madrid "Real" coach José Mourinho is devising various tactical schemes.

As reported by "Diario AS", the Portuguese has already selected six starting lineup players.

It is reported that goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois will guard the goal. One of the defenders will be Marc Cucurella, while midfielders Federico Valverde and Jude Bellingham are guaranteed spots.

In attack, Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius will pose a threat to opponents.

According to the press, J. Mourinho has been pondering how to unlock K. Mbappé's full potential in attack for some time.

The Portuguese has also taken note of the England national team's tactics during the World Cup and intends to apply the same tasks to Jude Bellingham.
