Many sources have confirmed that Mbappe is preparing to play for Real Madrid next season, and this will cost the club a big price.
In early February, many sources from France and Spain simultaneously confirmed that Kylian Mbappe had agreed to move to Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer. However, to get the French superstar, Los Blancos still have to pay a not cheap price.
According to Sport, Toni Kroos is currently the highest paid player at Real Madrid with 25 million Euros per season. And Kylian Mbappe will earn double the above amount if he joins the club, or 50 million Euros per season.
This number is even much larger than the salary that club legend and Mbappe’s idol, Cristiano Ronaldo, once received at Real Madrid. Before leaving in 2018, CR7 received compensation of about 23 million Euros per season at the Spanish Royal Club.
But that’s not all, Cadena Ser newspaper revealed that Mbappe also has two more special financial requests for Real Madrid or any club that wants to recruit him next summer. Specifically, in addition to the salary of 50 million Euros, the French superstar wants to receive 120 million Euros as a bribe to sign the contract and an agreement to share image royalties.
This will help Mbappe’s total annual income reach 70-80 million Euros per season. Thereby helping him maintain his income even though he refused PSG’s lucrative contract.
However, the possibility of Mbappe coming to Real Madrid still needs confirmation from the player or club. Before making his choice public, the 25-year-old striker is expected to first inform PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
The head of PSG also confirmed this and affirmed: “When we both have decided, we will tell you all.” Meanwhile, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said Mbappe’s choice very close to the announcement date.
