(VIDEO) Sergio Ramos Reveals Mbappé's Nickname While Showing Real Madrid Jersey Gifted by the French Star
Sergio Ramos has maintained a strong bond with Kylian Mbappé, a friendship that began when they shared the locker room at Paris Saint-Germain. Now, the French star has made a special gesture toward the Spanish defender.
Mbappé’s Gift to Sergio Ramos
As Ramos continues searching for his next club, Mbappé sent him a Real Madrid jersey. The Spanish defender expressed his gratitude in an Instagram video, where he also revealed the nickname he and some PSG teammates gave the French forward.
"Thank you so much, Pingu. Thanks, bro. I'll keep this in a special place. Glad to see you scoring goals and making an impact. A big hug, and Hala Madrid," Ramos said.
The nickname “Pingu” was originally given to Mbappé by Achraf Hakimi, one of his closest friends at PSG. It stuck with the squad, and Ramos hasn’t forgotten it.
Mbappé Shining at Real Madrid
The French striker has quickly become Real Madrid’s marquee signing of the season. After a gradual start, he has hit his stride, proving his value in attack. Mbappé has netted 15 goals in LaLiga, trailing Robert Lewandowski by just two in the race for the Pichichi. Additionally, he has scored in every final Real Madrid has played this season, cementing his status as a key player for the club.
