Reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano gave everyone an update on Mbappe's potential move to Real Madrid next season. After sources close to PSG and Mbappe say the player has decided to join Real Madrid this summer, Romano confirms the interest from the player and the Spanish giants. Real Madrid is confident in getting the deal done soon, but PSG has not heard anything from Mbappe himself. PSG is preparing for his departure by looking at possible replacements like AC Milan's Rafael Leao.

Mbappe will need to take a pay cut to join Real Madrid since his current salary is around $66 million a year. He could be earning around $35-$39 million a year at Real Madrid. Fabrizio Romano mentioned that the salary would be significantly lower than what he was offered in 2022 by Real Madrid. Regardless, the move looks close to happening, and Mbappe could be leaving PSG for free. This is bad news for PSG, but it could also be bad news for the French league itself. The French governing body, Ligue de Football Professionnel [LFP], could lose 20% of profits.
