PSG, Real Madrid: a huge bonus awaits Mbappé!

Real Madrid seem ready to break the bank to convince Kylian Mbappé to settle down on the other side of the Pyrenees.

Elected best Ligue 1 player for the 2022-2023 season on Sunday, a trophy received during the UNFP Trophies ceremony, Kylian Mbappé ended the suspense on his short-term future. The French striker has made a strong announcement that will delight Paris Saint-Germain supporters. Under contract until June 2024, plus an optional additional year, the 24-year-old star intends to “honor” his commitment to the end.

PSG and nothing else… for now

This frank clarification did not prevent the 2018 world champion from talking about Real Madrid, at least from bouncing to a question about his chances of seeing him wear the Merengue jersey one day. With a smile, the former Monegasque kicked into touch. “I am here to comment on the presentation of this trophy and I will not say anything more. What happens elsewhere is none of my business. I said that I will play at PSG next year. I still have a year of contract. I want to honor my contract.”

40 TCC goals this season

Behind the scenes, if it will probably be necessary to wait until the summer of 2024 before the file is unblocked, the Casa Blanca is preparing the ground. According to the information given by Defense Central, the Merengues have a plan in mind to help the native of Bondy make his choice. The 2023 Spanish vice-champion intends to offer him a huge signing bonus… of 80 million euros. Need we remind you that Real Madrid would not have to pay a single penny in transfer compensation if the main interested party decided not to activate the one-year option included in his lease, extended in May 2022.

Before the 38th and final day of Ligue 1 against Clermont at the Parc des Princes on Saturday, Kylian Mbappé scored 40 goals in 42 games in all competitions, including 28 goals in 33 Ligue 1 games.
