A year after his arrival at Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé was able to find his place. And it is more particularly in the axis of the Merengue attack that the Bondynois was positioned during last season. However, a new development has been made, with a change in number. Passed from 9 to 10, Kylian Mbappé knows who will carry his old number. It should be Gonzalo Garcia.
According to an indiscretion of Marcathe small Madrid offensive nugget should recover this famous 9, which is currently in full negotiation to extend its contract. Launched this summer by Xabi Alonso at the Club World Cup, the twenty-one-year-old offensive seized his luck by scoring four goals in the space of six games. What change your status within the first team.
Last season, Gonzalo Garcia had only taken part in three games, who was still an important member of the young people of Castilla. He nevertheless registered twenty-five goals in thirty-six games with the latter. For exercise 2025-2026, he will go up in rank and play the luxury liners behind Kylian Mbappé. And since the former PSG chose to recover the 10 left free this summer by a Luka Modric who left for AC Milan, it is he who will play with the 9 on his back.
Endrick, crossed by Mbappé and now by Garcia?
This configuration which is becoming clearer is however not good news for another hope, Brazilian this one, who arrived at Real Madrid last year. Barred by Mbappé and practically not used by Carlo Ancelotti, Endrick still has the turkey in the stuffing. The Merengue adventure of the Brazilian is not for the moment the one he hoped for.
It remains to wait for the formalization by Real Madrid concerning the name of the future carrier of number 9. Offensively, the “Casa Blanca” will have great arguments for the new season.
