Cristiano Ronaldo has set a new world record with his response to Kylian Mbappe’s transfer to Real Madrid. Ronaldo’s comment on Mbappe’s Instagram announcement has become the most-liked comment in Instagram’s history, garnering over five million likes and counting.
Mbappe, 25, recently confirmed his highly anticipated move to Real Madrid after his contract with Paris Saint-Germain expired. The transfer, long speculated, marks the highest-profile free agent move in football history.
Mbappe expressed his excitement on Instagram, stating, “A dream come true. So happy and proud to be part of my dream club. It’s impossible to explain how happy and excited I feel right now. I can’t wait to see you, Madridistas, and thank you for your incredible support.”
Ronaldo responded to this post with, “My turn to… [eyes emoji]. Excited to see you light up the Bernabeu.”
Ronaldo, a Real Madrid legend who joined the club from Manchester United in 2009 and made 292 appearances before leaving in 2018, currently plays for Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia. Despite his current position, he remains closely connected to Real Madrid and its developments.
Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid fulfills a long-standing pursuit by the Spanish giants, who have been tracking him since 2017. His arrival adds him to a lineage of world-class players at Madrid, including Ronaldo, Jude Bellingham, Zinedine Zidane, and Gareth Bale.
