OFFICIAL: Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid
2 min readReal Madrid’s official website has officially confirmed that superstar Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid next season, completing the “Galacticos 3.0” galaxy.
After days of anticipation, Real Madrid fans finally breathe a sigh of relief as the club’s official website officially confirms that superstar Kylian Mbappe will play at the Bernabeu next season. This has been foreseen as the 25-year-old player announced his departure from PSG after 7 years, and he has long expressed his dream of wearing the Los Blancos jersey.
On social media platforms, Real Madrid has posted a short piece of content about the new signing, along with a video showcasing the outstanding contributions of the 2018 World Cup champion in the past.
Additionally, Mbappe himself has confirmed his move to the Spanish royal club by sharing photos of himself wearing the team’s jersey from his childhood, along with the caption: “The dream has become a reality! There is nothing happier and prouder than joining the dream team. Nothing can express my excitement at this moment.
Can’t wait to meet you, Madridistas. Thank you for your enthusiastic support!!
Kylian Mbappe joins Real Madrid as a free agent and will be tied to the club for 5 years with a reported signing bonus of around 100 million euros. However, the French superstar’s salary at Los Blancos is said to be only 15 million euros per year, a significant 93% decrease compared to his salary at his former club, PSG.
Nevertheless, for the player himself, the opportunity to play in a top-tier environment like La Liga alongside a star-studded lineup at Los Blancos undoubtedly makes the dream of winning the Champions League clearer for the former Monaco star.
In the past, Mbappe could have become a Real Madrid player much earlier if it weren’t for the classic “U-turn” in football history. Specifically, in the summer of 2022, Mbappe was reportedly set to join the royal club with a blockbuster deal, but the superstar changed his mind when he extended his contract with PSG despite the lucrative offers presented by president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
Ultimately, at this moment, Kylian Mbappe is undoubtedly a Real Madrid player, and there will be no constraints between the two parties in this deal, allowing the 2018 World Cup champion to wholeheartedly embark on a new chapter in his career.
