After his move to Spain is confirmed, Kylian Mbappe is expected to wear the No. 9 jersey at Real Madrid, with Vinicius Jr. currently wearing the No. 7 shirt. After his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires this summer, Mbappe, the French international who won the World Cup, is anticipated to join Santiago Bernabeu as a free agent. It is thought that an agreement has already been reached, securing Mbappe’s place as another prominent “Galactico” for Real Madrid.

Since joining PSG, Mbappe has claimed the No. 7 jersey for himself. David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo are two of the greatest football players in history to wear this number. He won’t be allowed to wear the No. 7 shirt at Real Madrid, though, as Vinicius Jr. presently wears it.

AS claims that Mbappe is instead being groomed to take over the No. 9 shirt, which has been empty since Karim Benzema’s departure in 2023. After moving to Madrid in 2009, Ronaldo took the No. 9 jersey at first.

Mbappe may still decide to wear the No. 10 shirt, which he frequently does for the French national team. With his Real Madrid contract expiring at the conclusion of the 2023–24 season, Croatian playmaker Luka Modric’s future is in doubt in light of this possible situation.

All things considered, Mbappe’s choice of jersey and upcoming transfer to Real Madrid indicate that he is prepared to assume a major role at the team, further establishing his reputation as one of the most exciting football players in the world.
