Real Madrid is set to hold an extraordinary welcome ceremony for the captain of the French national team, Kylian Mbappé, when he joins the team after the UEFA Euro 2024. This follows the successful experience of hosting a concert by the famous American singer Taylor Swift in late May. According to the Spanish newspaper "AS," the welcome ceremony will include a fireworks display, a musical concert, and a stage similar to the one used in Taylor Swift's show.
The event is scheduled to take place at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium on July 16, two days after the conclusion of Euro 2024, where France will face Portugal on Friday in the quarter-finals. "AS" reported that officials from Real Madrid stated it would be the most exciting showcase for a football player ever. The report indicated that around 80,000 fans are expected to attend the ceremony, wearing the number 9 jersey that Kylian will don.
