According to earlier speculations, Kylian Mbappé, who proudly wears the number 10 shirt for the French national team, may wear it for Real Madrid in the forthcoming season. Marca claims that Mbappé hasn’t asked for this famous number himself.
Real Madrid is eager to give him the No. 10 shirt, though. The team thinks this move would strengthen the brand, increase shirt sales, improve marketing, and showcase Mbappé’s leadership abilities.
Following James Rodríguez’s departure, the renowned Luka Modrić wore this number. The No. 10 shirt will become available as the Croatian is expected to join AC Milan after the FIFA Club World Cup, leaving Real Madrid.
In summary, Mbappé became a free agent and signed with Real Madrid last summer. The French attacker has made 56 appearances this season, scoring 43 goals and dishing out five assists. He is presently valued at €180 million by Transfermarkt.
