Following speculations as to what jersey number Kylian Mbappe will wear at Real Madrid following the French international’s preference for the number 7 or 10 jersey number, the official jersey number at the Spanish side has officially been confirmed in new reports.
Mbappe will reportedly follow in the footsteps of his idol Christiano Ronaldo and will wear a number as opposed to his preferred number. It has been confirmed that Mbappe will wear the number 9 jersey for Real Madrid, a number left behind by his French counterpart, Karim Benzema.
Why is Kylian Mbappe not wearing the number 7 or 10 jersey for Real Madrid?
With Vinicius Jnr currently wearing the number 7 jersey and Luka Modric looking to extend his contract with the Spanish giants and retain his number 10 jersey, Mbappe will wear the number 9 jersey as Ronaldo had initially done when he completed his move to Real Madrid.
Upon his arrival, the iconic number 7 jersey was occupied by Raul Gonzalez, a revered figure at the Santiago Bernabeu. It wasn’t until the 2010/11 season, following Raul’s departure to join Schalke in the Bundesliga, that Ronaldo finally secured the coveted number 7 jersey.
