This summer, Mbappe's contract with Grand Paris will officially expire, and since he has publicly stated that he will not renew his contract with Grand Paris, which team Mbappe will play for in the future has become a topic of concern for many fans.
The most promising team to introduce Mbappe, I believe everyone knows, is the La Liga giants Real Madrid, as early as 2020, Mbappe and Real Madrid had a scandal, when the Galaxy Battleship offered 180 million euros to Paris to buy Mbappe, whose contract was about to expire. However, after careful consideration, the French giants still rejected Real Madrid's offer, and after continuous lobbying and heavy money temptation from the whole team, Grand Paris successfully completed the contract renewal with Mbappe after that, and Mr. Mbappe's first transfer to the soap opera ended with Real Madrid's gloomy exit.
But this time, things seem to be different. Last summer, Mbappe suddenly and publicly announced that he would not activate the renewal clause in his contract and that he would leave the club on a free transfer this summer to start a new chapter in his career. After nearly three years of waiting, Real Madrid finally saw hope of bringing in the French star. According to a number of Spanish media reports, Real Madrid offered Mbappe a signing fee of 130 million euros and a team-record annual salary of 26 million euros after tax, but compared with the super contract of 50 million euros after tax offered by Grand Paris, if Mbappe joins Real Madrid, he will have to make some sacrifices in terms of money.
Not so long ago, Mbappe's transfer soap opera had an update. According to the latest revelations from the French media "Footmercato", after a long period of negotiations, Mbappe has reached an agreement with Real Madrid that he will give up the 80 million euro loyalty award of Grand Paris and join the Galaxy as a free agent this summer. At that time, Real Madrid will form a luxury offensive trident of Mbappe, Vinicius, and Rodrygo, and the value of the three of them in the "German Transfer Market" has all exceeded the 100 million euro mark, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most luxurious offensive combination in the world!
And there is another very important reason why Mbappe chose to join Real Madrid, that is, to hit the Golden Ball. In last season, Haaland, a contemporary of Mbappe, almost took the lead in winning the Ballon d'Or, if it weren't for Messi's god and leading Argentina to win the World Cup, the Ballon d'Or would really belong to Haaland, who led Manchester City to win the treble. And this is undoubtedly unacceptable to Mbappe, as one of the recognized successors of Melo, if Mbappe can not make a breakthrough in club honors, then for a long time in the future, he may be difficult to compare with Haaland, and the Muha duel will also become Haaland's standout.
As the most successful club in the history of the Champions League, Real Madrid can undoubtedly make up for Mbappe's shortcomings in club honors, coupled with the behind-the-scenes operation of President Florentino, I believe that it is only a matter of time before Mbappe wins the Ballon d'Or!
