Mbappe’s first appearance at Santiago Bernabeu and Zidane was there

Kylian Mbappe made his debut appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu as a Real Madrid player, expressing that joining the club is a “dream come true.” The stadium was filled with enthusiastic Blancos supporters eager to witness the unveiling of the new ‘Galactico’.

After a prolonged anticipation, Mbappe has finally made the switch from Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent. Despite facing challenges with France during Euro 2024, including a broken nose, Mbappe appeared joyful while greeting Real Madrid fans.

The event was enhanced by the unexpected presence of fellow Frenchman and Real Madrid legend, Zinedine Zidane, who joined the welcoming festivities.

With a raucous atmosphere being generated at the Bernabeu, Mbappe told those in the crowd: “Hello everyone. I’ll try to speak in Spanish. It’s incredible to be here. I dreamed of playing for Real Madrid for years. This dream has come true today, I am a particularly happy young man.

I would like to thank Mr. President Florentino Perez, who welcomed me warmly from the first day. There have been many twists and turns but here I am. I would also like to thank all the people who worked to get me here. We succeeded! I am a Real Madrid player! I see my family happy and my mother crying.

“It’s an incredible day for me. Since I was a child, I had only one dream, and that was to be here. It means a lot to me to be here. Thanks to the Real fans who have been showering me with love for years.

I have another dream now, and that is to live up to the history of this club, the best in the world. I’m going to give it my all for this club.

To all the children here, know that I was like you; I had a dream and I made it come true. With determination, you can achieve anything you want. This is so huge for me. I am proud to be here. I am not going to continue talking because otherwise I will shed tears. Uno, dos, tres: Hala Madrid!

Mbappe has adopted the No. 9 jersey at Madrid, while Vinicius Junior has taken over the No. 7 shirt. He aims to make an immediate impact with the La Liga and Champions League champions, having been unable to join France’s Olympic squad during the Paris Games.
