The Amount Real Madrid Paid for Kylian Mbappé Revealed: Signing Bonus Comes to Light

The Frenchman signed a significant bonus when joining Real Madrid on a free transfer, and now the details are coming to light

Real Madrid closed the signing of Kylian Mbappé last summer as a free agent after many years pursuing him. Nothing was paid for his transfer, as his contract with PSG had ended, but a significant outlay was made to finally convince him. Months after this move took place, it seems that the first official figures have been revealed.

Having arrived on a free transfer, Mbappé had the opportunity to pocket a significant signing bonus. Much has been said about it, but journalist Marçal Lorente from El Chiringuito has revealed that it exceeds 100 million euros. In total, we would be talking about 117.5 million, a figure that, according to several sources, is deferred over his 5-year contract with Real Madrid.

This signing bonus has helped make Mbappé's salary much lower than it was in Paris. There, he pocketed 72 million euros a year, while at Real Madrid, this figure has dropped to 30. We are talking about gross money, so his salary is 15 "rocks" net per season at Bernabéu.

Now, it has become clear that this 30 million euro salary must be added to the signing bonus, which has finally come to light. In total, 117.5 "rocks" are prorated over five years, which means an addition of 23.5 million annually to his salary.

Significant bet on Kylian Mbappé

Florentino Pérez has always been clear that he had to bring him to Real Madrid, and after much effort, he has finally succeeded. It hasn't been easy all this time, but in the end, it will be worth it. The bet on Kylian Mbappé is significant, and now the Frenchman has to make up for it in some way.

The way is "simple": scoring goals and leading Real Madrid to all titles. The great objective the Frenchman has is to win the Champions League, a trophy that still eludes him. He didn't achieve it in Paris and now wishes to lift this title wearing the jersey of his beloved Madrid, where he hopes to spend the rest of his career.

Madridists wish to see him succeed at Real Madrid, and Mbappé has the opportunity to do so after many years of back and forth. It's his turn.
