Weakest club in Champions League celebrates against Real Madrid

Kairat FC players burst into emotion when meeting Real Madrid in League Phase, Champions League 2025/26.

A video clip has been circulating on social media showing Kairat players watching the League Phase Champions League 2025/26 draw live on a screen.

When they learned that they would be playing against Real Madrid, the players of the Kazakhstan team clapped their hands and hugged each other in celebration. Many held their heads in amazement, seemingly unable to believe what was happening.

Kairat's qualifying round fixtures. They meet Real in the first match.

Kairat is the club with the lowest squad value in the Champions League this season (12.75 million euros - according to Transfermarkt), lower than another "newcomer" Pafos (20.85 million euros). Meeting a series of big clubs in the most prestigious cup tournament in Europe such as Real Madrid, Inter, Arsenal, Sporting,... will bring players and fans an unprecedented football party.

Before that, Kairat had a brave performance to overcome Celtic in the second leg of the play-off, thereby securing a ticket to the Champions League for the first time in history.

As for Real, coach Xabi Alonso and his team certainly do not want to meet Kairat. The problem is not the level between the two teams but the distance "Los Blancos" have to travel. They will have to travel more than 6,400 km to Kazakhstan to play against a virtually unknown opponent.
