In the days leading up to Real Madrid's match against Elche on Tuesday, September 15, Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Junior, and Ibrahima Konaté chose not to wear their jerseys in the same way as their teammates. The front of their jerseys featured the phrase "Todos somos Caballas," which translates to "We are all Caballas." This phrase refers to the nickname of Real Madrid's fan group, known as the "Caballas," which is associated with the club's passionate supporters. The logo was only faintly visible on the players' jerseys, suggesting they had intentionally made it less noticeable. Before the match began, both Mbappé and Vinicius went a step further by removing the logo entirely. This action drew attention, as the phrase had been prominently displayed on the jerseys of other Real Madrid players. The decision by these three players to obscure or remove the "Todos somos Caballas" message was not immediately explained by the club or the players themselves. It raised questions about their stance toward the fan group or the club's branding. However, no official statement was made at the time regarding their actions. This incident occurred during a period of heightened interest in Real Madrid's activities, both on and off the field. While the players' choices regarding their jerseys were notable, the match itself was part of a regular season fixture, with the team ultimately focusing on their performance against Elche.
