MADRID (AP) — For the second time in three seasons, and sixth in 10 years, Real Madrid is celebrating a Champions League title with its fans on the streets of the Spanish capital.
Several thousands came out Sunday to welcome the team a day after it won a record-extending 15th Champions League title by beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley Stadium.
There could be even more reasons to celebrate for Madrid fans in the coming days with the club reportedly close to announcing the much-anticipated signing of Kylian Mbappé, the France star who left Paris Saint-Germain and has been targeted by the Spanish powerhouse.
Celebrations began with the squad leaving the team’s Santiago Bernabeu Stadium on top of an open bus that took players and the coaching staff to meet with government officials while fans lined the streets to greet the newly crowned champions. Madrid previously won the Champions League in 2022.
