Mbappe Channels Ronaldo’s Magic as He Unveils Himself at Real Madrid
Kylian Mbappe’s arrival at Real Madrid was always going to be a big deal, but he’s made it even more memorable by copying Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic gesture during his unveiling ceremony.
After weeks of speculation, Mbappe finally signed with the Spanish giants last month, and it’s been clear since then that he’s going to be a huge hit in the Bernabeu. The French superstar wrote on social media: "A dream come true. So happy and proud to join the club of my dream, Real Madrid. Nobody can understand how excited I am right now. Can’t wait to see you, Madridistas, and thanks for your unbelievable support. Hala Madrid!"
Fast forward to Tuesday, when Mbappe completed his medical tests and was officially unveiled in front of the Madrid faithful. As he was wrapping up his presentation, he surprised everyone by copying Ronaldo’s famous "One, two, three. Hala Madrid!" gesture, which the Portuguese legend made during his own unveiling back in 2009.
The move was a clever nod to his predecessor, and it’s clear that Mbappe is already embracing the culture and tradition of the club. Speaking to the media, Mbappe gushed about the experience, saying: "My family are so happy. I can see my mum crying. It’s an incredible day for me. I’ve dreamed about this day since I was a kid. Being here today means a lot to me. Now I have another dream – and that’s the dream of living up to this club’s history and Madridistas’ expectations. I can promise that I will give my all for the club and this badge."
He also had a special message for the kids in attendance, saying: "I was once like you. If you have the passion, you’ll achieve your dreams. I’m very excited and emotional. The fact that I’m talking so much means that it’s very important for me to be here today. This is the club of my dreams and the biggest club in the history of world football."
With Mbappe now donning the number nine shirt for Real Madrid, fans can’t wait to see what he’ll bring to the table in the upcoming season. One thing’s for sure – with his incredible skill and newfound enthusiasm, Mbappe is going to be a force to be reckoned with.
