It’s no longer a secret. Kylian Mbappé, whose contract with Paris Saint-Germain expires in June, will not be extending his stay in France. The French national team captain recently announced to his president and teammates that he will be leaving this summer for a new adventure.
And while his next destination is not yet officially known, everything suggests that the 2018 world champion will realize his lifelong dream by signing with Real Madrid. However, he still has to negotiate the terms of his arrival with the president of the Casa Blanca, Florentino Perez.
Mbappé and image rights
In the Spanish capital, the 25-year-old striker will receive a lower salary than he did in France, around 15 million euros net per year. In addition, he will receive a substantial signing bonus, the amount of which varies according to sources, but is expected to be around 100 million euros. Finally, the last and most important issue to be settled is the thorny subject of image rights. In the past, Real Madrid has wanted to be clear, and this since the time of the Galacticos.
Image rights are shared 50-50 with the players, a question on which Mbappé is more demanding. And according to the information of the show El Chiringuito, he would have made Florentino Perez crack. He should receive 80% of his image rights, 20% for the club.
AS specifies for example that Erling Haaland holds 100% with Manchester City. A first major battle won by the Frenchman!
