Kylian Mbappe, one of the world’s best football players, is set to join Real Madrid. The Spanish club officially announced the signing of Mbappe, who has spent the last few seasons playing for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Official Announcement
Real Madrid released a statement saying, “Real Madrid CF and Kylian Mbappe have reached an agreement, and he will be a player of the club for the next five seasons.” The club emphasized that they are welcoming a superstar who, at 25 years old, had his best season with PSG, scoring 44 goals. Mbappe also won the title of top scorer in the French league for six consecutive years, netting 27 goals last season. He is a spectacular forward and the captain of the French national team, with whom he won the World Cup in 2018 and the Nations League in 2021. He was also the top scorer at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Upcoming Weeks for Mbappe
Mbappe has a busy schedule ahead. He will first play in the European Championship with the French national team. According to the newspaper “Marca,” Mbappe’s official presentation in Madrid is expected to take place after the tournament, most likely on July 15 or 16. His first official match for Real Madrid could be in the UEFA Super Cup on August 16, where Real Madrid will face Atalanta at the National Stadium in Warsaw.
Real Madrid Fans Rejoice
Real Madrid fans have more reasons to celebrate. On Saturday, their team won the Champions League, defeating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley Stadium in London. Now, with the addition of one of the best offensive players in the world, their team is even stronger.
Mbappe is expected to replace legendary strikers like Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema. He will join forces with English midfielder Jude Bellingham and Brazilian forward Vinicius Junior to form a new magical trio, aiming to dominate Spanish and European football for years to come.
Mbappe’s Dream Come True
Mbappe has long dreamed of playing for Real Madrid and had been in talks with the club for a while. He did not renew his contract with PSG, which allowed him to join Real Madrid for free. This move is likely to earn him one of the highest salaries in Real Madrid’s history, approximately 35 million euros per season. Additionally, Mbappe will receive over 100 million euros as a signing bonus and an unprecedented share of image rights, reportedly around 80 percent.
This exciting transfer marks the beginning of a new chapter for both Kylian Mbappe and Real Madrid. Fans eagerly await to see how this talented player will contribute to the team’s success in the coming seasons.
