Not even Cristiano, Mbappé's salary at Real Madrid is revealed and only Messi had a higher one in Spain

Kylian Mbappé is hours away from being announced as a new Real Madrid player, and the excitement from the fans is massive. The French star is arguably the best player in the world, and his salary at Real Madrid will make him one of the richest players in La Liga. His salary could eclipse Cristiano Ronaldo’s salary at Real Madrid many years ago. Tancredi Palmeri reports that Kylian Mbappé will have an annual salary of $62.7 million at Real Madrid. By signing the contract, he will also receive a signing bonus of $100 million, which would give him a total of $84.2 million in the next five years. It will be the second-highest salary in the history of Spanish football, only behind Lionel Messi’s last contract in FC Barcelona, which saw the Argentine star earn around $95.7 million.

Real Madrid, set to announce Mbappé as new signing next week after winning the Champions League. Mbappé made his decision in February; he can now be considered new Real player.”

Mbappé will be announced today by Real Madrid. The French star is currently with the French national team as they prepare for the EUROS 2024. Mbappé is expected to be announced by the Spanish club at 7 pm in Spain. The French star will likely wear the number 9 shirt next season and play as the main striker instead of taking the left-wing position from Vinicius Jr. The two plan to interchange positions during matches, which will create fluidity in the attack for Real Madrid. Football fans await confirmation as this move is inevitably going to happen.

Kylian Mbappé and Thierry Henry basically confirmed the Real Madrid move happening

French President Emmanuel Macron visited Mbappé at the French national team training session. Macron asked Mbappé, “Is the announcement [Mbappé to Real Madrid] today?” Mbappé then said, “Tonight, tonight.” The French star also removed PSG from his bio on Instagram, which also hints that the announcement is very close to happening, and many fans are waiting for the official statement by Real Madrid and the player himself. Real Madrid has been after the French star for many years and was close to signing him in 2022, but the player decided to extend his contract with PSG.

Thierry Henry, the manager of the U23 French national team for the Summer Olympics, accidentally revealed that Mbappé would go to Real Madrid when asked why the French star was not on the list for the Olympics. Henry said, “Real Madrid were really straight forward about the Olympics—the last time I suffered this many rejections was back in my college days.”
