Mbappé joins as one of soccer’s most iconic players and will have a contract to match that status. AS claim that he will earn €15 million ($16.3 million) per season, in addition to 80% of any image rights income.
Mbappé has ended a seven-year stint in Paris, where he scored 256 goals in 308 games, winning six Ligue Un titles in the process, and he will now test his talents outside of his home country for the first time as he moves to Spain to play in La Liga.
Interestingly, Paris Saint-Germain will not receive any transfer fee as Mbappé’s contract in the French capital had expired.

Best player signs for biggest club.
With this signing, Madrid’s intentions are crystal clear. They want to continue to dominate world football for the next 5 years.
And when you have Bellingham, Vinicius, and all the other young talented players, and have now added Mbappe to that list, well, let’s just say their objective of world football domination is not unreasonable.
This is how serious, successful clubs and countries operate. Unlike Nigeria, where shoddy, inept decisions are followed by fasting and prayers.
