Mbappe Unveiled by Real Madrid to 80,000 Fans

Kylian Mbappe has officially joined Real Madrid, marking a significant moment in football with a grand unveiling at the Santiago Bernabeu, reminiscent of Cristiano Ronaldo's presentation in 2009. The French striker, who signed after a prolific stint at PSG, is expected to debut in the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta after recovering from a nose injury sustained during Euro 2024. His arrival is seen as a major boost for Real Madrid's attacking lineup, which already includes stars like Vinicius Jr., Rodrygo, and Jude Bellingham. Meanwhile, Luka Modric has extended his contract with Real Madrid until 2025, despite a less impactful last season. Mbappe's transition is highly anticipated, with discussions about his potential position and role in the team under coach Carlo Ancelotti. The presentation was a massive event, drawing comparisons to Lionel Messi's unveiling at Inter Miami, both in scale and global viewership.
