A missed appointment. On several occasions, Kylian Mbappé (25 years old) could have joined Real Madrid, a club that has made him dream since his early childhood. And after numerous attempts and disappointments, the captain of the France team will put on the legendary white tunic from this summer of 2024. Information revealed on our site as of January 7. Since then, the footballer born in 98 announced to Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, as well as to the staff and his teammates, that he would leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the 2023-24 financial year. Enough to confirm a little more that he will join the residents of the Santiago-Bernabéu stadium from next summer.
Besides, El Chiringuito announced yesterday that he would like to be presented in his new colors before the start of Euro 2024. The famous Spanish show also revealed some details regarding his future salary, between 15 and 20 million euros, and his rights to the image, which he would own 80% of. This last detail has not yet been resolved according to our information, but the idea of the Mbappé clan was to obtain between 70 and 90% of the image rights of the French striker. Which does not necessarily correspond to the policy of the Madrilenians, who are 50/50 with the players. But the Bondynois agreed to have a lower salary than in Paris, where he receives 72 million euros gross.
A juicy bonus for KM7
Information from the Iberian press speaks of an amount between 15 and 20 million euros. Some sources close to the Iberian club told us a salary of between 19 and 22 million euros net per year. Which corresponds more or less to the amounts announced here and there in Spain. Concerning the famous signing bonus for the 2018 world champion, we are talking about the sum of 50 million euros on the other side of the Pyrenees. Other sources indicate that he will receive a large check. We are talking about an amount greater than 120 million euros. Which wouldn’t be so surprising since KM7 will be sitting on a pile of money by leaving PSG, where he had a loyalty bonus and an XXL salary.
Finally, the Habs will receive other bonuses negotiated with Florentino Pérez. According to our information, he will receive a bonus in the event of victory in the Ballon d’Or. A trophy that Kylian Mbappé, third in the last edition, covets. Sources close to the Madrid team told us of an amount of up to 15 million euros. This is not so surprising. Real Madrid has already done this in the past. Karim Benzema received 1 million euros during his coronation in 2022. He also obtained a one-year contract extension. KM7, who should sign a long contract with the Merengues, will therefore logically be rewarded in the event of success at the Ballon d’Or. Enough to motivate him even more than he already is.
