The transfer of Kylian Mbappe was arguably Real Madrid’s most important signing since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.
While Los Blancos have spent fortunes on many players in between this timeframe, Mbappe joins the club as one of the world’s best and very few are betting against him, in his new chapter at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Keeping that in mind, Real Madrid are expected to leave no stone unturned for Mbappe’s presentation.
Real Madrid’s presentation plans for Mbappe
A recent report from AS has offered comprehensive insights into Real Madrid’s plans to unveil Mbappe.
As per the report, Mbappe will be officially revealed as a Real Madrid player on July 16, at 19:00 CET.
Mbappe will be unveiled wearing the new Real Madrid kit as well as his number nine jersey. Fans will be able to buy the new kit once his presentation is completed.
Real Madrid’s plan is to make Mbappe complete his medical in the morning, on the same day, before unveiling him in the evening at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Catwalk, fireworks and more
As far as the presentation is concerned, Real Madrid have made multiple plans, including live music and fireworks.
However, the most eye-catching feature of Mbappe’s unveiling will be the catwalk that will be arranged. It appears the Frenchman will unveil himself by cat-walking on the stage at Bernabeu – a first for any Real Madrid signing.
The club have installed several 360-degree panoramic cameras to capture the moment while there will also be fire effects on stage.
A total of 80,000 fans will be attending this highly-awaited event, which will also be streamed live to millions of fans across the globe.
