Kylian Mbappé will wear the number 10 jersey next season at Real Madrid. A clear message: he’s moving on from the number 9 he wore during his first year in Spain.
The French superstar all but confirmed the news himself with a short but telling post on X: simply “10”. A subtle tease, but no doubt about the meaning—Mbappé is set to inherit the legendary number vacated by Luka Modric, who joined AC Milan this summer.
“10”
Already the number he wears with the French national team, the 10 shirt represents much more than just a change—it’s a statement. Mbappé is ready to take center stage at Real Madrid and lead this new era.
An official announcement from the club is still pending, but the switch now looks inevitable.
