Last week, the European press published information confirming that Kylian Mbappe will not renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), which will expire at the end of the season. The French striker will become a free player and have full rights to negotiate with new clubs.

Without having to pay any transfer fees, many teams want to own Mbappe. However, Real Madrid is said to still be the top priority of the 2018 World Cup champion.

Even though they do not have to spend money on player transfers, the Bernabeu team still needs a huge amount of money to meet Mbappe’s salary. AS newspaper (Spain) revealed that Real Madrid must pay Mbappe 500 million euros within 5 years.

This is not a small number, but Real Madrid is prepared. This process was even calculated by Club President Florentino Perez several years ago.

Currently, Real Madrid has 128 million euros in cash and 265 million euros in credit. The club also cut salaries by 78 million euros in the last fiscal year.

Salary reduction has been done a lot by the Bernabeu team in recent years. Specifically, the club is ready to part with a series of high-paid players who are no longer able to contribute such as Karim Benzema , Gareth Bale, Eden Hazard, Isco,…

In addition, when the Bernabeu stadium completes the upgrade process, Real Madrid will also “pocket” up to 317 million euros per year.

“Thanks to meticulous financial calculations, the opportunity to sign a contract with Kylian Mbappe becomes brighter,” AS assessed.

In 2021, Real Madrid almost welcomed Mbappe in a similar way. At that time, the French player also reached the end of his contract with PSG and was free to negotiate with the Bernabeu team. But the deal broke down at the last minute when Mbappe suddenly extended his contract.

This time, the same story is still likely to happen. However, according to many experts, that possibility is not high. Kylian Mbappe has definitely left and there is no way he will ever “turn around” with Real Madrid again.
