In a significant move, Real Madrid has unveiled Kylian Mbappe as the new bearer of the prestigious number 10 jersey, joining the ranks of legendary players such as Mesut Ozil, Luis Figo, and Ferenc Puskas. The announcement comes following Luka Modric's departure after his final appearance in the Club World Cup.
Despite being Real Madrid's top goal-scorer with 31 goals in the recent La Liga campaign, Mbappe has faced criticism for not securing trophies for the club. Meanwhile, PSG clinched their first UEFA Champions League title in his absence and advanced to the Club World Cup final, leaving Real without silverware.
On the international front, Mbappe continues his impressive form, scoring his 50th goal for France during a recent victory over Germany. His contribution brought him closer to breaking Thierry Henry's national scoring record. He also assisted Michael Olise in the dying moments of the match, showcasing his all-around abilities. (ANI)
