Kylian Mbappé was given an enthusiastic welcome by 85,000 fans at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu at his official presentation at Real Madrid. His dream has finally come true, said the Frenchman. In front of his parents and legends such as Zidane and Raúl, the captain of the French national team took to the stage in the football stadium of the Spanish Champions League winners. «It’s incredible to be here. I’ve dreamed of playing for Real Madrid for many years, and my dream has come true today», said Mbappé, who was signed on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappé had successfully completed the medical examinations before his appearance. He laughed at the camera and gave the thumbs up as a sign of his joy. He then signed a contract alongside Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez until the summer of 2029. The Estadio Santiago Bernabéu was filled to capacity for this spectacle.
The tickets were free. However, prices of up to 300 euros were being asked for on the black market. The last time the stadium was completely full was at a player presentation in 2009. At that time, Cristiano Ronaldo was introduced.
