Kylian Mbappé's numbers

From his breakthrough at Monaco to his blockbuster move to Real Madrid, Kylian Mbappé’s shirt numbers have traced the arc of his rise to global superstardom. Each number tells a story of youth, ambition, and legacy. Here is a look at every jersey he has worn in his professional career.

AS Monaco (2015–2017)

Number 33

Mbappé’s first appearances for the Monaco first team saw him wear the number 33 – a typical squad number for a youth player given a chance in the senior side, much like Lionel Messi’s 30 at Barcelona.

Number 39

In his European debut, a Europa League match against Tottenham Hotspur, Mbappé wore the number 39. Despite his young age, he provided an assist for Stephan El Shaarawy’s goal.

Number 29

The number Mbappé most often wore during his time at Monaco was 29. This marked the start of his professional career, and with it he helped Monaco win the Ligue 1 title in 2016–2017 and reach the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.

Paris Saint-Germain (2017–2024)

Number 29

Upon joining PSG in 2017, Mbappé initially kept the number 29, which was becoming a personal trademark. Alongside Neymar and Edinson Cavani, he continued to showcase his exceptional talent.

Number 7

From the 2018–2019 season, Mbappé switched to the number 7 – an iconic shirt worn by legends such as Cristiano Ronaldo. The change reflected his growth and ambition to become a top global star. With the number 7, he won multiple Ligue 1 titles, domestic cups, and helped PSG reach the 2020 Champions League final.

French National Team (2017–Present)

Number 12

Mbappé made his senior France debut in 2017 wearing the number 12 – a detail many fans forget. During the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, he scored his first international goal on 31 August 2017 against the Netherlands.

Number 10

Mbappé later inherited the number 10, a historic shirt in French football worn by Michel Platini and Zinedine Zidane. With it, he became only the second teenager to score in a World Cup final (after Pelé in 1958), helping France win their second world title. He also featured at Euro 2020 and the 2022 World Cup, where France reached the final.

Real Madrid (2024–Present)

Mbappé’s long-anticipated move to Real Madrid in the summer of 2024 has sparked intense speculation about which number he will wear. The number 7 belongs to Vinícius Júnior, a key figure in the squad. The number 10 is currently held by Luka Modrić, though the Croatian is nearing the end of his career. The most available option is the number 9, which currently has no owner – a number that recalls Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic season with Madrid.

What is certain is that Mbappé’s arrival in La Liga is a major event. Whichever number he chooses, it will become a defining part of his legacy.
