Mbappe, 26, had previously worn the number ten shirt while playing for PSG. He is now set to take over the number ten shirt from Karim Benzema, a fellow French forward who currently wears the number nine shirt.
Mbappe had a successful first season in Spain, scoring 44 goals and providing five assists in 59 games. Despite Real Madrid not winning a trophy, Mbappe's impressive performance has earned him the chance to wear his desired shirt number.
