Kylian Mbappe 'has signed contract' with Real Madrid until 2029: Report

Mbappe will join the Spanish club as a free agent

According to sources in Spain, Kylian Mbappe has signed a contract with Real Madrid that will keep him with the LaLiga giants until 2029.

The French sensation, whose contract is about to expire, has been courted by the Spanish team for years. After he told PSG last week that he would be departing in the summer, there were more whispers that he may sign.

And now, according to Marca, Mbappe signed a contract to join Real Madrid two weeks ago,’ making a firm pledge’ to the team at the Bernabeu.

this week that Madrid are prepared to pay Mbappe more than the £10.3 million that they pay Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior annually, making him the team’s highest-paid.

They’ll also start negotiations over what proportion of his image rights he keeps, and pay a signing-on fee estimated to be around £85.5 million.

According to the Marca report, Mbappe’s camp urged PSG ‘not to bother’ when they made him additional offers to stay at the French club because he had already made a contract with Real Madrid.

Following talks between the two camps the previous summer, Mbappe is reported to have responded “positively” when Los Blancos phoned his entourage early in the new year to ask if he was still going to join Madrid.

It goes on to say that after realising they already had “two of the best footballers on the planet” in Vinicius Jr. and Jude Bellingham, Madrid no longer considered Mbappe to be a player they were interested in buying “at any price.”

However, the club began formal talks at the beginning of February in an effort to complete the transaction as soon as feasible.

In spite of this, the French forward will join the team as the best-paid member, albeit his pay is not too dissimilar from that of Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, and David Alaba, the team’s current top earners.
