Kylian Mbappe's dad splurges $20k on Real Madrid jerseys

Wilfried Mbappe didn't wait a single day after Kylian Mbappe's presentation to buy over 100 of his son's Real Madrid jerseys. He paid more than $20,000 for the souvenirs.

On Tuesday, Kylian Mbappe was introduced as a new Real Madrid player. His transfer from Paris Saint-Germain to the Champions League winner is the biggest event of the summer transfer window worldwide. The French international's transfer had been discussed for years until it became a reality.

The presentation of the new Royal player was organized on a grand scale and garnered immense media and fan interest.

Kylian Mbappe arrived in Madrid accompanied by his parents, among others. Wilfried Mbappe and Fayza Lamari displayed different emotions. The exceptional athlete's mother was moved, while his father beamed with satisfaction.

After the presentation, Wilfried Mbappe immediately bought 100 Kylian Mbappe jerseys from Real Madrid. He will likely present them to family and close friends. But that's not all. According to the "Defensa Central" portal, Wilfried Mbappe also purchased the jerseys for the beneficiaries of the "Inspired by KM" foundation. The young people from the foundation were even personally present at the presentation.

Spanish media calculated that Wilfried Mbappe's shopping cost more than $20,000. One jersey in the official store costs $200, so for over a hundred jerseys, one has to pay more than $20,000. However, it is speculated that such a special guest at the event might have received a discount.

This doesn’t change that Wilfried Mbappe splurged in the Royal store. Nevertheless, it's hard to blame him. His son signed a contract with the most titled club in the history of the Champions League.
