According to El Nacional, Kylian Mbappe has already chosen his shirt number at Real Madrid if he joins the Bernabeu.
After announcing that he will not renew his contract with PSG, Mbappe has stirred up anger within the Parisian club while giving hope to clubs across Europe that want to sign him. If Paris Saint-Germain cannot sell the 24-year-old star this summer, they will lose their key striker after the upcoming season.
Of course, many clubs are eager to acquire the 2022 World Cup Golden Boot winner, but currently, Real Madrid is the most potential destination for the French forward. Mbappe has long expressed his dream of wearing the white shirt of Los Blancos.
However, with his current status as one of the world's top attacking talents, Mbappe has the right to make certain demands within limits. According to El Nacional, even though he has not officially joined the Spanish capital club, the PSG striker has requested his preferred shirt number. Specifically, the talented player born in 1998 wants to wear the number 10 if he joins the Galacticos.
Currently, the number 10 at Real Madrid belongs to Luka Modric, who plays a leadership role in the midfield under coach Carlo Ancelotti. Mbappe did not mention the number 7 (currently worn by Vinicius Junior), his current shirt number at PSG and the iconic number of Cristiano Ronaldo, the idol of the French forward.
The future of Mbappe at the French capital club is still complicated. It remains unclear how PSG will handle the situation of their key attacking player, who is currently "putting the club against the wall."
