Kylian Mbappe: Real Madrid Reserve Special Jersey Number for PSG Star

• Kylian Mbappe's jersey number at Real Madrid has been revealed
• The PSG superstar's future at Paris Saint-Germain is up in the air
• His contract ends next summer and it is unclear if he will stay on

Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe is anticipated to don the coveted number 10 jersey if he joins Real Madrid in the upcoming 2024/25 season.

The 24-year-old French forward has been on Los Blancos' radar for years, with club chief, Florentino Perez, a keen admirer of the 2022 FIFA World Cup Golden Ball winner.

Mbappe's contract with PSG expires next summer, and the prospect of joining forces with the 2018 World Cup winner has not escaped the desires of several Real Madrid players.

Back in 2022, the 24-year-old came close to joining the 14-time Champions League winners, but he ultimately opted for a contract extension with PSG. Nonetheless, his relationship with the club, notably with president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, soured during the summer.

Journalist Paco Buyo from El Chiringuito via Tribuna further bolsters the speculation by asserting that Mbappe will undoubtedly wear the coveted number 10 jersey next season.

At present, Real Madrid's number 10 jersey is adorning the celebrated Luka Modric, but according to widespread reports, the Croatian maestro is anticipated to bid his farewell to the club by the season's end.

While the number 9 shirt remains unclaimed at the club, it is noteworthy that Mbappe has not previously worn this particular number throughout his career. Currently, he dons the number 10 for the French national team and the number 7 for Paris Saint-Germain.
