Eight months in prison for racist insults to Vinicius and Rüdiger

French star Kylian Mbappé was presented as a new Real Madrid player on Tuesday in front of thousands of people at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium, to whom he promised that he would give “his life for this club.”

“I am very happy and proud to be a player of the club of my dreams and the biggest club,” added the 25-year-old striker in Spanish, who signed his five-year contract with Real Madrid president Florentino Perez before the official presentation.

For Mbappé and Real Madrid, it is the completion of a long-awaited transfer.

Since last Thursday, the Frenchman’s number 9 shirt – who has always presented himself as a supporter of the Merengue team and Cristiano Ronaldo – has been on sale in the club’s stores, where the attacker’s face is seen everywhere.

«Enthusiasm and humility»

Coming from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Mbappé arrives in Spain after a disappointing Euro Cup on an individual level, where his star image was overshadowed by the young Spanish revelation Lamine Yamal.

The 25-year-old French captain had a difficult final season at PSG, marked by the tension surrounding his refusal to renew his contract, after which he ended and signed for Real Madrid. He said he felt “liberated” and “relieved.”

“It’s a huge pleasure and a dream come true. I’m going with great enthusiasm and humility,” Mbappé said at the time.

In Madrid, he will form a powerful new attacking trident alongside Englishman Jude Bellingham and Brazilian Vinicius Junior under the command of Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, which has already excited Real Madrid fans, who won their 15th Champions League in June.

The current Spanish champions will begin the league in Mallorca on the first day of the tournament that will take place between 17 and 18 August.

Mbappé’s possible debut at the Bernabéu will have to wait until next week, when Real Madrid host Real Valladolid, one of the recently promoted teams from the second division.

Real Madrid hope to recoup his costly signing (salary estimated at 15 million euros net -16.36 million dollars- per season and signing bonus of more than 100 million -109 million dollars-) thanks to the various economic benefits that the French player brings, such as sponsorship contracts, shirt or ticket sales, among others.
