Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid? A hell of a headache for the White House.
Kylian Mbappé announced departure from PSG, Real Madrid offers itself more than ever to him. At the White House, there has been excitement since Bondy’s crack was decided, although nothing has yet been sealed. To lock down the international tricolor, the Merengue management knows that it will have to play tight. Without giving in to madness and risking harming the cohesion of the locker room.
The arrival of such a star certainly involves sacrifices, but president Florentino Perez intends to ensure the collective harmony of the most successful club in Europe. Also the daily Marca reported this Saturday on an unprecedented contract preparation – just to accommodate everyone’s susceptibilities. To date, five Real players earn around two million euros per month: Jude Bellingham, Vinicius Jr, Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and David Alaba. And there would be no question of giving more to Kylian Mbappé.
Bonuses galore
In other words, according to the Spanish publication in question, the captain of the Blues will not receive more than 25 million euros in salary each year in Madrid (compared to 72 million gross in Paris). But the person concerned will not lose out. At least not in such proportions. The idea for the White House is to smooth as much as possible the emoluments of the former Monegasque, by multiplying the possible bonuses.
There will initially be a question of a signing bonus – a virtual obligation for a reinforcement of this caliber – the sources on this point vary considerably, suggesting an envelope of 50 to 130 million euros. It will also be a question of various bonuses awarded according to the prodigy’s performances: his goals, his assists, the trophies won – individual and collective – and his Ballon d’Or ranking in particular. A commission paid for each appearance under the merengue tunic – friendly matches included – would also be on the menu. Not to mention image rights which in Spain can soar. To the point of representing the bulk of its income.
