Kylian Mbappe fulfilled his childhood dream by joining Real Madrid, where he signed a five-year contract following the end of his Paris St-Germain tenure in July. Delayed due to France’s Euro 2024 campaign, which ended in a semi-final loss to Spain, Mbappe’s unveiling at the Bernabeu drew over 80,000 fans. Addressing the crowd in Spanish, he expressed immense happiness and shared that he had long envisioned playing for the club.
Wearing Real Madrid’s new home kit, Mbappe emotionally described the significance of the moment for himself and his family, noting his mother’s tears of joy. Real president Florentino Perez introduced Mbappe, emphasizing the player’s deep-seated connection and admiration for the club since childhood. Perez highlighted the persistence that led to Mbappe’s arrival, recalling Real’s earlier failed attempt to sign him with a £137m bid three years ago.
Despite PSG receiving a record £259m offer from Al-Hilal in 2023, Mbappe declined, determined to fulfill his desire to join Real Madrid. PSG had initially excluded Mbappe from their pre-season plans following the rejected bid but later reintegrated him under manager Luis Enrique. Kylian Mbappe departed PSG after an illustrious spell that saw him score 256 goals in 308 appearances, leaving behind a significant legacy.
His move to Real Madrid marks a pivotal moment in his career, affirming his status as one of the world’s top football talents.
