French striker Kylian Mbappe has agreed to join Spanish giants Real Madrid at the end of the season. The 25-year-old has told PSG he will leave the club when his contract expires in June.
Mbappe met with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi on 13 February, and told him he was leaving and will be joining Madrid. He is yet to sign a contract with Real Madrid, but the deal could be announced once it is no longer possible for the clubs to meet in this season’s UEFA Champions League.
The striker is PSG’s all time record goalscorer with 244 goals, and he’s set to put pen to paper for a five-year deal with Real, earning 15m euros (£12.8m) a season, plus a 150m euro (£128m) signing-on bonus to be paid over five years.
The World Cup winner won the French title with Monaco before joining PSG as an 18-year-old in 2017, initially on loan before a 180m euro (£165.7m) move.
He has 244 goals and 93 assists in 291 games for PSG and has helped the club to win five French Ligue 1 titles.
