The unusual reason why Mbappé wants to stay at PSG until his contract ends

The saga surrounding Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappé continues to be a hot topic in Spain. As his contract nears its end in June 2024, the French champions are still trying to capitalize on his transfer this summer. However, Mbappé is clear that he wants to wear the colors of the Ile-de-France region during the 2023-2024 season, despite the constant interest from Real Madrid.

According to the Madrid-based newspaper Marca, despite all the rumors and efforts made by Real Madrid, Mbappé's camp has ruled out any move during the current transfer window in order to avoid missing out on an astronomical sum of 250 million EUR.

How does this amount come about? It includes his annual salary at PSG, which amounts to 60 million EUR, along with his loyalty bonus in Paris of 90 million EUR and the signing bonus with Real Madrid as a free player, which could reach 100 EUR million.

With this financial situation on the table, Mbappé is not considering a team change at the moment, preferring to fulfill his contract with PSG and preserve his earnings. However, this situation leaves the door open for future moves, as at some point the French player may consider a change of scenery.

He may stay

For now, the focus is on staying at PSG and fulfilling his responsibilities at the club. The uncertainty surrounding his future will continue to generate excitement and speculation, but for the time being, Mbappé is focused on his performance with the Parisian team and making the most of his current financial situation.
