According to Bild, Real Madrid will definitely spend a large amount of money on Kylian Mbappe even though they can recruit him for free.

The 25-year-old’s current contract with PSG will end this summer. Kylian Mbappe can start negotiations with other clubs from this point on.

The Parc des Princes team always hopes that Mbappe will continue to stay in Paris after this season, but there is a lot of interest from the Premier League and Real Madrid.

This striker repeatedly came close to signing a contract with Real Madrid. At this time, the Santiago Bernabeu is still the most likely landing spot for him when leaving PSG.

Real will spend a large amount of money on Mbappe.

However, Real must meet Mbappe’s demands. The 2018 World Cup winner is looking for an annual salary of 70 million euros with a five-year contract. However, this request conflicts with Real Madrid’s salary cap, which is believed to be at 35 million euros.

Currently, Mbappe earns about 200 million euros annually through bonuses and commissions. Since Mbappé will join Real as a free agent, bonuses will become an important factor in negotiations.

Bild provided specific information that Real will have to pay a signing bonus worth 125 million euros. Along with an expected annual salary of 70 million euros, that would cost  more than 400 million euros over the five-year term of the contract.
