It is undoubtedly the biggest transfer of the year, which has been years in the making, but the 2018 World Cup winner has finally made the move – much to the glee of Real fans.

And it was made official that the forward would wear the No.9 shirt at the Bernabeu, following in the footsteps of Ronaldo, Raul and Karim Benzema.

According to Marca, the announcement that his shirt was up for sale saw the club’s online store crash.

There were so many orders that the webstore had to display a message to warn shoppers that their orders will be seriously delayed because of the demand.

When compared to Real’s other superstars like Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr, the delivery times were significantly shorter.

In such a case, delivery was expected in three to four business days, whereas Mbappe shirts could take as long as six weeks, it was warned.

The boom will see Mbappe shirts break records for sales, according to Marca – truly remarkably considering the superstars that have walked through the Madrid gates in the past.

Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane are renowned as just a handful of some of the legends of the sport to play for Los Blancos.

Mbappe is set to introduce himself to Real Madrid fans on July 16, a common tradition for big-name players at the club.

Tyson Fury’s Epic Meltdown: ‘FKING TOSSER!’ – IBF Rankings and Joshua-Usyk Rematch Slammed!

Tyson Fury, the reigning heavyweight champion, recently voiced his frustrations regarding the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and the current state of boxing during an interview in London. Known for his candidness, Fury did not hold back in expressing his displeasure over the IBF’s ranking decisions and what he perceives as bias against him. In a lively exchange with journalist Charlie Parsons, Fury reflected on his preparation for his upcoming fight, emphasizing his dedication to the sport and his ongoing passion for boxing. He mentioned that if others were compensated as handsomely as he is, they too would find inspiration in the sport. However, Fury’s focus quickly turned to the IBF, which he criticized for their questionable rankings, particularly their decision to place him outside the top 15 after he had just paid a substantial fee to compete for their title. Fury’s frustration was palpable as he referred to the IBF’s belt as “a piece of sh*t” and expressed his disdain for the organization, stating he would “piss on it” when he got home. He took aim at Daryl Peoples, a judge he believes is not fit to officiate significant bouts, suggesting that the judging system in boxing is flawed, particularly when it comes to his fights. Despite his strong feelings regarding the IBF, he acknowledged that he had no loss of faith in the judges, who he deemed competent. As he prepares for a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, Fury indicated that he plans to approach the fight with a renewed focus, aiming to avoid complacency. He admitted that in their previous encounter, he may have underestimated Usyk’s abilities, engaging in what he called “clowning around” during the match. Fury’s goal for the upcoming bout is to assert himself with more concentration and less showboating. The conversation also touched upon the future of heavyweight boxing, including the potential for a rematch between Anthony Joshua and Usyk. Fury, who has previously clashed with Joshua, expressed skepticism about Joshua’s chances of winning should a rematch take place. He suggested that if Joshua continues to face defeats, the prospect of their fight, which once promised to be a blockbuster event, may not hold the same allure. Fury concluded the interview by discussing his holiday plans, humorously noting that he would indulge in festive feasting and then work to shed the extra weight come January. The heavyweight champion remains optimistic about his future in boxing, hinting at the possibility of a trilogy fight with Usyk. As Fury gears up for his next challenge, his passion for the sport and his determination to reclaim his status remain evident, ensuring that fans will be eagerly awaiting the December 21st showdown.

In a candid update, Joshua emphasized his status as a legitimate world champion and called for respect for his achievements in the ring. The injury reportedly occurred during the second round of the bout, where Joshua was caught with a powerful shot that caused him to wobble and subsequently trip multiple times. This incident raised concerns about his physical condition, but the specific nature of his injuries remained unclear until now. Sources close to Joshua’s camp have confirmed that he is dealing with a sprained ankle. Although there were hints of other injuries, the ankle has emerged as the primary concern. Observers of the fight noted that Joshua’s balance seemed compromised, which may have been exacerbated by the adrenaline rush that athletes often experience during competition. In discussing the injury, Joshua drew parallels to personal experiences, likening his situation to a severe ankle sprain he suffered in the past. He expressed confidence that the injury, while painful, is not broken and can heal with appropriate care and rehabilitation. This perspective offers hope to fans who are concerned about his ability to return to the ring. The news comes at a crucial time for Joshua, who has been navigating a challenging phase in his boxing career. With the pressure mounting for a comeback, the revelation of this injury adds another layer of complexity to his journey. While the specifics of his recovery timeline are yet to be disclosed, boxing enthusiasts and analysts alike are eager to see how this will impact his future fights. As the boxing world awaits further updates, fans are left with a mixture of concern and anticipation for Joshua’s return to form. The emphasis on respect for his achievements serves as a reminder of his status within the heavyweight division, even as he grapples with the physical toll of the sport. Joshua’s resilience and determination have always been hallmarks of his career, and this latest challenge will undoubtedly test those qualities once again. As he navigates the recovery process, the boxing community remains hopeful for his swift return to the ring, ready to reclaim his position among the elite in the heavyweight class.
