The epic moment has finally come as Real Madrid presented French superstar Kylian Mbappe in front of thousands of their supporters at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. 80,000 people made the stadium roar to witness one of the biggest signings in football history.
Kylian Mbappe Presentation Was a Blockbuster
The player’s childhood dream came true when Madrid announced the signing just before the Euro 2024. Mbappe who walked into the stadium wearing a smile and waving to the packed Bernabeu, told the ocean of fans how incredible the moment was for him, that too in Spanish.
“It’s incredible day for me,” Mbappé enchanted the crowd in their language. “Since being a kid I dreamed about playing for Madrid and today I’m here. It means a lot to me.”
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez was delighted as his long-time hunt for the Frenchman has finally gotten successful. Madrid and legend and their former triple UCL winning coach Zinedine Zidan was also there near him. Not to forget, Zidane was the person who had invited his countryman to Madrid for the first time when he was coaching the men in white.
Perez took the mic and welcomed one of the best players in the world right now.
“Today we welcome an exceptional player who today is fulfilling his childhood dream. Today you are here because it’s something that you wanted. Thank you for making a great effort to be able to wear this white jersey.”

It was a big moment for Real Madrid as well after multiple failed attempts to land the French star. Mbappe was 14 when the club first tried to sign him but the player decided to join Monaco. In 2021, Madrid again had proposed a whopping 180 million Euro deal to PSG but Mbappe renewed his contract with PSG instead of booking his tickets to Bernabeu.
