Kylian Mbappé recreates viral photo from childhood during Real Madrid presentation

New Real Madrid signing Kylian Mbappé made use of the opportunity to recreate a widely recognised photo from his childhood, during his Blancos presentation this week.

The name of frontman Mbappé, of course, has dominated the headlines across all of Spain over the course of the last couple of days.

As much comes after the 25-year-old was at long last unveiled as the latest addition to Carlo Ancelotti’s star-studded Real Madrid squad.

Mbappé, in turn, has spent the week to date making himself familiar with his new surroundings in the Spanish capital, looking nothing short of enthralled whilst doing so.

And, as alluded to above, in the midst of as much, on Wednesday, the France international took the chance to bring some special childhood memories back to the fore.

Mbappé was actually invited for a trail period with Real Madrid during his youth, after catching the eye with his performances at academy level in his home country.

During his trip to Spain, the attacker, at the time, posed for a photo which had since reemerged in force this week, at The Ciudad Real Madrid Florentino Pérez.

Upon passing through the same area again on Wednesday, Mbappé therefore called for the photo crew covering his presentation to stop, to help him recreate the picture in question:
