Kylian Mbappé’s move from Paris Saint-Germain to Real Madrid has already been decided behind the scenes, but has still not been officially announced. The reasons are several. One of them has to do with the millions in hand money that the 25-year-old received for his signature with the Royals.
Last summer, the relationship between Kylian Mbappé and Paris Saint-Germain was on the verge of escalation. Because the superstar refused to extend his contract, he was briefly suspended by his club. According to reports, Mbappé calmed the situation by voluntarily forgoing a contractually guaranteed bonus of 80 million euros.
Now the Spanish “AS” and the French “L’Équipe” are unanimously reporting that the Parisians are expecting another million-dollar gift from their current employee. Mbappé should also give the Parisians a non-percentage of the earnest money that he would receive from Real Madrid if he signed.
PSG expects a mega sum from Kylian Mbappé
According to “AS”, it is a sum of 100 to 150 million euros that Mbappé will receive. The Qatari owners would see this as the superstar’s “final gesture” and “expect” him to pay, writes the Spanish sports newspaper. PSG would book this amount as a kind of replacement fee, as it is well known that there is no transfer fee for Mbappé’s move.
This may also be a reason why the relationship between player and club is currently not the best. According to “AS”, the two parties are currently in a small clinch regarding exactly the conditions for the farewell. Not only the million-dollar gift in question is up for discussion, but also the timing of the announcement.
According to French media, it is currently planned that Mbappé will be sent off with drums and trumpets in the Prinzenpark Stadium. However, a date for this has not yet been found. According to reports, PSG wants to wait until they can no longer face Real Madrid in the Champions League. Such a duel would offer particular explosive material against the background of a Mbappé change. The French top club apparently wants to avoid this unpleasant situation at all costs.
