Green light for Madrid to communicate the arrival of the French star to Chamartín. The presentation is also expected to take place before the start of the European Championship, in a historic event.
Real Madrid won the Champions League this Saturday at Wembley after defeating Borussia Dortmund. Carlo Ancelotti’s team has conquered the Fifteenth European Cup in British lands and, in this way, already has the way cleared to announce the signing of Kylian Mbappé.
The PSG striker, who said goodbye to France on May 25 after winning the Cup against Olympique Lyon, had already announced in early May that he would leave both his team and the French country after the season. Both Madrid and he reached an agreement that no official announcement would be made until after the European Cup final.

Although Mbappé has a contract with PSG until June 30, Madrid’s idea is to announce the incorporation of the French star to the squad before the European Championship starts, which will do so on June 14. It is also the player’s intention, as he has already said goodbye to his closest circle and, in recent weeks, has not denied that he would end up at Real Madrid.
Thus, in a matter of hours, Madrid could officially announce Mbappé’s arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu. The White club has tried to close the last details of a long-running soap opera that has dragged on for more than necessary and whose starting point was in 2017, when the footballer, then at Monaco, rejected Madrid’s offer -superior- to PSG’s, with the incentive that Mbappé would play for his hometown team and improve the image of the French league.
Kylian Mbappé will wear the Real Madrid jersey after seven long years at Paris, where he has ended up being the all-time top scorer in the history of the French club, and he will do so after arriving on a free transfer, as he has fulfilled his contract with PSG.
