According to a report by Defensa Central, Man City is ready to fight Real Madrid for the signature of Kylian Mbappe.
Kylian Mbappé has informed everyone at PSG that he will not sign a new contract with them. The French club want to keep him around for as long as possible, but ultimately, they have to accept the reality that the World Cup winner will move to another club in the summer.
Mbappe has been heavily linked with Real Madrid for many years now. He even almost joined Los Blancos in the summer of 2022 on a free transfer. Despite many disappointments, the Spanish club has never closed the door on Mbappe and desires him more and more.
Reports from across Europe confirmed that Mbappe was ready to join Real this summer, then Man City suddenly appeared, ready to do their best to bring this 25-year-old player to the Etihad. Pep Guardiola wants to continue to dominate the world and has a reason to recruit the French striker.
To beat Real Madrid in this race, Man City is willing to pay Mbappe a higher salary than what the Spanish club pays. At that time, Mbappe will become the highest paid player in the team, more than Erling Haaland. At the same time, the Manchester team is also willing to pay the former Monaco star a huge signing bonus, as large as the loyalty bonus that Mbappé would have received if he had stayed in France.
