Seen from Germany, the future of Kylian Mbappé is sealed: the Parisian striker has chosen to leave PSG to join Real Madrid.
Where will Kylian Mbappé play next season? The question fascinates on both sides of the Pyrenees. But not only. As evidenced by the revelations made by Bild this Wednesday. The German daily announced that the Parisian striker, at the end of his contract next June, had decided on his future and decided to leave PSG to join Real Madrid.
Two years after having made an about-face by favoring the XXL extension offer submitted by the French champions, the Bondynois would this time be determined to commit to the Merengue club. However, it remained to come to an agreement with the Spanish giant. While the French world champion would hope to receive some 70 million euros annually in Madrid, more or less what he receives at PSG since his extension, Florentino Perez and his teams would not want to go beyond 35 million annual euros.
A signing bonus of €125 million
Such a salary would make Kylian Mbappé not only the highest paid player in the Madrid locker room, but also in the history of the club, Cristiano Ronaldo having never been entitled to such treatment. A signing for Real Madrid would also come with a gigantic bonus. The sum of 125 million euros is thus mentioned by the German daily.
However, PSG would not have given up on convincing its star player to continue the adventure with the Rouge et Bleu. To do this, Parisian leaders would be ready to offer him no less than 400 million euros over four years. At the beginning of the month, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi assured “don’t be stressed”. “ Did he tell us anything about the timing of his decision? Yes. But this remains between us. We are talking. We are calm. I trust him 200%. He’s a good boy. He gave me his word and he’s a man of his word.” he explained to L’Equipe.
