It is official! After years of uncertainty, Kylian Mbappe has officially become a Real Madrid player. The Frenchman has joined Los Blancos as a free agent after refusing to sign a contract extension at Paris Saint-Germain. The transfer is a massive steal for Real Madrid, as they did not have to pay a dime to PSG for arguably the most valuable player on the planet. Instead of lining up PSG’s coffers, Real Madrid will pay a massive signing-on fee to Mbappe. According to reports, the number could be anywhere between £80 million ($102.20 million) and £128 million ($163.52 million). Los Blancos will reportedly pay the fee in installments over the five years. While his signing bonus is one of the biggest Europe has ever seen, Mbappe will not earn astronomical wages at Real Madrid. According to The Mirror, the 25-year-old will take home £250,000 after tax, which is modest for a player of his stature.
