Kylian Mbappe Set to Inherit Modric’s No. 10 Shirt at Real Madrid.
Kylian Mbappé is expected to take over the iconic No. 10 jersey at Real Madrid, following Luka Modric’s departure.
Currently wearing the No. 9 shirt and playing as a forward under manager Carlo Ancelotti, Mbappé has had a strong first season since joining the club last summer. According to *BeIN Sports*, he is the leading candidate to assume Modric’s number next season.
Modric recently confirmed he will leave the club after the FIFA Club World Cup, bringing an end to more than a decade at Real Madrid.
While other players like Jude Bellingham and Arda Güler could also be contenders for the shirt, Mbappé is seen as the most likely successor—echoing the path of his idol Cristiano Ronaldo, who also changed numbers after his debut season.
