Kylian Mbappe has made the decision to leave PSG at the end of the season, reports Bild h/t Elchiringuito.
However, the Frenchman is asking for an insane signing bonus of €125m to join Real Madrid when his contract ends in June this year.
If Mbappe leaves PSG in June he will do so as a free agent with Real Madrid not obligated to pay any transfer fee. Still, the sign-on bonus will be the biggest ever paid for a player arriving on a free transfer in football history if Florentino Perez agrees to it.
Mbappe's salary demands are also acrimonious when compared to what other Real Madrid players currently earn. Madrid's top earner Toni Kroos bags less than €15m net per season. Mbappe is demanding nearly three times that, which isn't up to his current salary at PSG.
Real Madrid probably understands that the 25-year-old will cost them an arm and a leg even if they're getting him as a free agent. Thus, the economic conditions of the deal will be studied carefully before the green button is pressed.
Mbappe is one of the most prolific forwards in Europe having scored over 318 goals in his career so far.
