Following France's elimination from the just concluded Euro 2024, the 25-year-old is set to be unveiled to the club's fans on Tuesday.
According to Spanish publication AS, tickets to the ceremony sold out quickly after going on sale on Friday, July 12.
More than 85 per cent of the tickets were sold by the end of the first day, and they are now completely sold out.
Mbappe lands in Madrid for presentation
Ahead of the presentation, the 2018 World Cup winner has already landed in Madrid for his grand unveiling.
A video circulating on social media shows Mbappe being chauffeured in a black BMW to the hospital.
Clad in white shorts, a cream shirt, and white-themed sunglasses, he waved at the gathered fans as he stepped out of the vehicle ahead of his medicals.
Around 80,000 Madrid supporters are expected to attend the unveiling of Mbappe.
According to Goal, club president Florentino Perez will present the former AS Monaco prodigy to the club's supporters at 12:00 on Tuesday.
Huge expectations await Mbappe at Madrid
The latest Galatico faces great expectations as he joins Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Junior, and fellow French stars Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga on Carlo Ancelotti's team.
What's next for Mbappe?
In an earlier publication, Briefly News reported that winning the Champions League is likely his primary goal, having already secured multiple league titles with PSG and a World Cup with France but lacking success in Europe's premier club competition.
Having almost joined Real Madrid two years ago before extending his contract with PSG, this moment represents a fresh start with his new club.
