24-year-old French footballer Kylian Mbappe has admitted many times that he has dreamed of playing for the Madrid club since childhood. In the spring of 2022, the transfer had already been agreed upon, but PSG at the last moment offered favorable conditions — a salary of 57 million euros per year after taxes and the opportunity to influence key decisions at the club. As a result, Mbappe re-signed his contract for two years with an option to extend for another season.
By data According to El Debate journalist Tomas-Gonzalez Martin, Real Madrid is ready to pay 200 million euros for Kylian plus 20 million in bonuses. Real Madrid management believes it will be able to sign Mbappe in the next two weeks. The Spaniards’ goal is to complete the transfer before July so that Kylian can go with the club on a tour of the United States.
Mbappe himself agrees to leave PSG, but only if he does not lose such a large sum. The forward wants to stay at the Paris Club for another year so that, in addition to the salary of 57 million, he will receive another 90 million euros in the form of a loyalty bonus, which should be accrued after the end of the contract. Once he receives the money, Kylian would like to leave PSG for free and negotiate a move to Real Madrid in January 2024.
At the same time, judging by the Transfermarkt aggregator, the most expensive player in the world is still the Norwegian striker of Manchester City Erling Haaland. The 22-year-old player’s value is estimated at 170 million euros.
