Want to snag that new Kylian Mbappe Real Madrid jersey? Go ahead. But it might take another four to six weeks for it to ship.
The Real Madrid store issued a slow delivery warning for all sizes online. The club’s official retail store is already sold out, with the shirt breaking club records: 7,000 shirts in one day, approximately €800,000 worth from the online shop.
According to the store, the authentic Mbappe home kit features “Mbappe’s official number and name on the back, as well as Champions League and Spanish league badges.”
Perhaps a sign of the inflationary times, Mbappe’s shirt is twice the price of Cristiano’s shirt (€84.99) in 2009.
Los Blancos played without the number all season in anticipation of Mbappe’s long-due signing. Madrid legend Karim Benzema previously donned the legendary number.
Real Madrid will present Mbappe to 81,000 Madridistas on July 16 at the Santiago Bernabéu.
