Kylian Mbappé is set to be presented as a new Real Madrid player at the Santiago Bernabeu next week. The French star is excited about joining the club, and the fans are also very excited about the move. Mbappé has been chased by Real Madrid for many years and now he will officially be their player next season. The hype for the signing is real, and the Santiago Bernabeu is expected to be full with over 80,00 fans in attendance. The tickets for the presentation, which will be on July 16th, will be free, but the club expects to make a lot of revenue from the shirt sales of Mbappé's name on the brand-new Real Madrid jersey. The shirt sale ranges from around $120 to $175, depending on which version of jersey fans choose to get. They are on sale now, and with the fans desperate to get their hands on the jersey, Real Madrid could make up to at least $9.6 million. The sales will only go up as the new season gets closer, and if he has great performances, the move will set to be a great deal for the club since they signed him as a free agent.

Kylian Mbappé kits are already in high demand on Real Madrid's official website. The website told the fans that Mbappé's shirt would take 4-6 weeks (usually 3-4 days) to arrive at their homes. The shirt number Mbappé will wear next season is the number 9 jersey, a number he has yet to use at the club level.

Real Madrid announced multiple jersey numbers for next season that included Mbappé wearing the number 9. Eduardo Camavinga will wear the number 6, Federico Valverde will wear the number 8, Arda Guler will wear the number 15 and Tchouameni will wear the number 14. Vallejo also has a number change and will wear the number 18.

Kylian Mbappé to not play the preseason?

Mbappé will be at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, but he will likely not play in the US preseason tour with Real Madrid. The French star has just played the EUROS with France and was eliminated in the semifinals by Spain, who will take on England this Sunday in the final.
