The signing of Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe remains a goal for Real Madrid. The Frenchman executed a surprising about-face in 2022.
He signed a three-year deal to remain at PSG, just as Los Blancos were on the verge of signing him. Things took another turn last summer when he informed the Parisians that he would be opting out of his contract in June. From this point on, he may negotiate with any team he wants.
After the season, the 25-year-old’s contract will expire, allowing him to immediately agree with another club. On the other hand, he hasn’t decided on his future just yet.
Lately, Mbappe has maintained that he has not yet settled on a future team: “I haven’t made my decision. I didn’t make a choice.
“But in any case, with the agreement I made with the president this summer, whatever my decision we managed to protect all the parties. And to preserve the serenity of the club for the challenges to come. Which is the most important? When will I decide? I do not know.”
Will Madrid go the same patch?
Even two years later, Los Blancos remain determined to sign the France captain. But ESPN reports that they will not be offering the Frenchman a massive deal like the one they offered in 2022.
Keeping their current salary structure is a top priority for the La Liga giants. Currently, Mbappe earns $40 million a season, so this would require him to accept a substantial salary reduction.
The Spanish, according to the source, are unwilling to pay Mbappe much more than other well-established talents like Vinicius and Jude Bellingham. The two make about $11.4 million net per season.
The major issue in European soccer over the last several years has been the superstar’s future. It would seem that the Whites’ star-studded roster would take a giant leap forward if the striker does eventually come.
