Online petition calling for Kylian Mbappe's removal from Real Madrid gains millions of signatures

An online petition titled "Mbappe Out" has gathered over 33 million signatures, far exceeding its initial 200,000-signature goal, amid controversy surrounding the French forward's recent actions both on and off the pitch. The petition emerged following Mbappe's trip with his girlfriend, actress Ester Exposito, which has sparked a social media firestorm among Real Madrid fans. Despite being the team's top goal scorer this season, Mbappe has faced intense scrutiny from the fanbase demanding his exit from the club.
