Real Madrid reach €250 million fee to sign Kylian Mbappe

Real Madrid is on the verge of securing the most significant transfer of the 2023 summer window, as reports indicate that they have reached a deal with Paris Saint-Germain to acquire Kylian Mbappe.

The 24-year-old French forward has long been a target for Los Blancos, with club president Florentino Perez being an ardent admirer of the talented player, who won the Golden Ball at the 2022 FIFA World Cup.

According to sources such as Sportskeeda, an agreement worth €250 million, which includes €50 million in bonuses, has purportedly been reached between Real Madrid and PSG for Mbappe’s transfer to the Spanish club during this summer.

PSG have decided to cash in on their French superstar this summer after the striker informed the reigning Ligue 1 champions he would not be extending his contract in the capital city beyond 2024.
