What’s the structure of the transfer?
Real Madrid has secured Kylian Mbappe on a free transfer following his departure from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
The 25-year-old striker, who left PSG as their all-time leading scorer with 256 goals in 308 appearances, signed a five-year contract with Real Madrid.
The deal is lucrative, with Mbappe set to earn £12.8 million annually after tax.
Additionally, Mbappe will receive a substantial signing-on bonus of just over £85 million, which Real Madrid will pay in instalments over the duration of his contract.
This move comes just two days after Real Madrid clinched their 15th Champions League title and their La Liga championship, marking a historic double for the club.
Real Madrid announced the transfer with a succinct statement:
“Real Madrid CF and Kylian Mbappe have reached an agreement whereby he will be a Real Madrid player for the next five seasons.”
This marks a significant milestone in Mbappe’s career as he joins one of the most prestigious football clubs in the world, further solidifying his status as one of the top players in the sport.
