Cristiano Ronaldo famously led Real Madrid faithful to the chorus of "Uno dos tres Hala Madrid" at a packed Santiago Bernabeu after the Manchester United icon was roped in by the La Liga giants for a record-breaking transfer fee in 2009. Greeted by 80,000 fans at Madrid's temple of football, Ronaldo revealed that it was his dream to don the famous white jersey. Fifteen years later, Kylian Mbappe recreated his idol Ronaldo's unforgettable gesture after Real Madrid unveiled the France captain as a new Galactico at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday.

Following Ronaldo's footsteps, France captain Mbappe has penned a long-term deal with Real Madrid. Mbappe completed his medical before Real Madrid president Florentino Perez handed the French forward the iconic No. 9 shirt after Mbappe signed a five-year contract with Los Blancos. Club legend Ronaldo kickstarted his Madrid career by donning the famous No.9 jersey in 2009. Delivering his first message in a Real Madrid jersey, Mbappe finished his speech by asking the crowd to join him and chant “Hala Madrid”.
