It is difficult for Kylian Mbappe to wear the number 7 shirt like his idol Cristiano Ronaldo if he joins Real Madrid in the summer of 2024

Mbappe will wear shirt number 10 at Real Madrid.

According to Mundo Deportivo, unless Vinicius Junior leaves or wants to change his shirt number, Mbappe will be given the iconic number 7 shirt at the Bernabeu. Instead, Real chose the number 10 shirt for the French player.

Luka Modric’s contract is about to end, so the number 10 shirt will be available for Mbappe in the summer of 2024. In fact, the striker born in 1998 is not too unfamiliar with this shirt number. In the French team, Mbappe plays well with the number 10 shirt on his back, while Antoine Griezmann is the owner of the number 7 shirt.

At the 2018 World Cup, Mbappe received the best young player award when he scored 4 goals and provided 1 assist in his first appearance at the tournament. Four years later, the 25-year-old striker could not successfully defend the throne with the French team. However, he scored a hat-ƚɾιƈƙ against Argentina in the final and won the top scorer award.

Currently, Mbappe is actively negotiating with Real to close the contract agreement. AS reported that Real is preparing 500 million euros to bring Mbappe to the Bernabeu.

The Spanish Royal Team has 128 million euros in cash and 265 million euros in credit. President Florentino Perez also did well in cutting salaries by up to 78 million euros last year.

“Thanks to reasonable calculations, Real is open to recruiting Mbappe,” AS wrote.

Mbappe joined PSG for 180 million euros. After 7 seasons, he became the greatest scorer in the history of the French capital team with 244 goals in 291 matches. Mbappe helped PSG win the French championship 5 times, but in the Champions League, he only won runner-up in 2020.
