Just one day after the grand celebration of the Spanish national team, the people of Madrid had the opportunity to witness another memorable event. That was the unveiling of Kylian Mbappe in the Real Madrid shirt at the Bernabeu stadium. After many years of pursuing, the Spanish royal team finally got the signature of the French striker.
Mbappe will officially debut for Real Madrid on July 16
According to the club’s homepage, the presentation will take place at 12 noon on July 16 (local time). President Florentino Perez will personally welcome the French star and Mbappe will sign a 5-year contract with “Los Blancos”. After greeting the fans, Mbappe will have his first press conference as a Real Madrid player.
According to the “Bull Country” media, this event attracted great attention from fans of the Spanish royal team. Real Madrid also “played big” when deciding to give away free tickets to Mbappe’s debut to fans. The number of people registered to watch reached more than 100,000 people, exceeding the capacity of the stadium. Therefore, “Los Blancos” were forced to divide the tickets in order.
Specifically, Real Madrid gives priority to fans who buy season and half-season tickets to register in advance. Each person is only allowed a maximum of 4 tickets. After that, other fans can register until all tickets are sold out. However, the source noted that there are still many fans who do not get tickets to watch.
Mbappe’s jersey is “sold out” even though it has only been on the shelves for a few days
According to Goal, the black market price for a good seat at Mbappe’s unveiling has reached 200 euros, more expensive than a ticket to a Real Madrid match. An estimated 85,000 spectators came to the Bernabeu to watch the event live, the same as Cristiano Ronaldo’s unveiling in 2009.
In addition, Mbappe’s jersey also created a fever. The French striker will wear the number 9 shirt of Real Madrid in his first season, just like his idol Ronaldo. AS noted that the website selling shirts of the Spanish royal team continuously fell into a state of overload after Mbappe’s jersey was put up for sale.
