Kylian Mbappe agrees to join Real Madrid
Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid next season after reportedly reaching an agreement with Los Blancos earlier in the week - according to Foot Mercato.
The last two summers have seen both Mbappe and Real Madrid involved in transfer sagas, with all things seemingly pointing towards a stunning move on both occasions. However, Real were left red-faced on both occasions, the Daily Mail reports.
Therefore, Real Madrid were eager to avoid a third defeat when discussing a potential transfer with Mbappe - who will be out of contract at the end of the season.
According to Foot Mercato, Mbappe reached an agreement with Real Madrid a few days ago and committed his future to the LaLiga giants after refusing to extend his stay at Paris Saint-Germain.
However, reports are stating that the financial package on offer from the Spanish giants is lower than those that were presented to the 25-year-old superstar during negotiations in 2022.
Mbappe was free to negotiate with other clubs from January 1 as he had officially entered into the last six months of his PSG contract. Therefore, Real Madrid began negotiating with the 25-year-old soon after.
Mbappe will be looking to finish the current campaign off on a high after scoring 25 goals in 24 games so far - registering a hat-trick in his side's 9-0 victory over sixth-tier outfit Revel in the French Cup on Sunday.
Mbappe has also scored a total of 237 goals in six-and-a-half years at Paris Saint-Germain, making him a key asset at the Parc des Princes and one that will be heavily missed on the pitch.
