This was confirmed by a source close to the player.\n\nNumber 10 became available after the departure of Luka Modri\u0107, who joined AC Milan after 13 years at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.\n\nMbapp\u00e9 also uses the number 10 for the French national team, and the source revealed that it was always in the player&#8217;s plans to wear that number at Madrid once it became available. However, Mbapp\u00e9 was prepared to stay for one more season with the number 9 if Modri\u0107 had renewed his contract for an additional year.\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Endrick, injured, will be out for two months.<\/li>\n<li>De Gea: The move to Madrid did not materialize &#8220;for a reason.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Analysis: How will Madrid deal with the absence of Jude Bellingham?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\nMbapp\u00e9 had an outstanding individual season with Madrid after his expected arrival from Paris Saint-Germain last summer.\n\nThe 26-year-old striker scored 31 goals in LaLiga, becoming the competition&#8217;s top scorer. In addition, he surpassed the 33 goals that Cristiano Ronaldo scored in his debut season with Real Madrid in all competitions.\n\nFour of those goals were in finals: in the 2-0 victory over Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup, in the 3-0 triumph over Pachuca in the FIFA Intercontinental Cup, and in the defeats against Barcelona in the Copa del Rey and the Supercopa de Espa\u00f1a.\n\nHowever, Mbapp\u00e9 received criticism from some sectors, as Madrid failed to win a major title, finishing second behind Barcelona in LaLiga and losing to Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-finals.\n\nMbapp\u00e9 struggled to stand out in the recent Club World Cup held in the United States, after being hospitalized for acute gastroenteritis that kept him out of action in the group stage.\n\nAlthough he returned for the knockout rounds, Madrid&#8217;s participation ended with a 4-0 defeat to PSG, Mbapp\u00e9&#8217;s former club, in the semi-finals.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mbapp\u00e9 inherits the number 10 shirt at Real Madrid Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 will wear the number 10 jersey at Real Madrid next season, leaving behind the number 9 he used in his debut campaign with the club.
