The 25-year-old French forward, who confirmed his departure from PSG last month, is set to join the Spanish giants as a free agent.

However, the exact date of his presentation remains uncertain due to his commitments with the French national team.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Mbappe will receive a signing-on bonus of just over £85 million (€100 million), which will be paid over a five-year period. However, he has allegedly agreed to a lower salary than the one he was offered in 2022.

The report also mentions that the confirmation of Mbappe's decision came in February when he informed PSG that he would not be extending his contract. Subsequently, senior figures within Real Madrid informed head coach Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the club’s Champions League last-16 first leg against RB Leipzig on February 13 that Mbappe would be joining the team next season.

Mbappe will be the latest Galactico to join Real Madrid and his arrival is expected to bolster their attacking options significantly after the departure of Karim Benzema.
