When Will Real Madrid Announce Kylian Mbappe Signing? Transfer Date Revealed 

Kylian Mbappe is on his way to Real Madrid, who are planning to introduce their newest “Galactico” recruit at some point in the future.

The World Cup-winning forward is getting ready to leave Paris Saint-Germain. Mbappe will become a free agent in the summer of 2024 and leave Parc des Princes if there is no contract extension option exercised there.

Real’s patience is set to be rewarded, with Los Blancos having spent several years pursuing Mbappe’s signature. They are said to have a lucrative offer lined up, with the prolific 25-year-old landing a deal in Spain that includes a signing bonus of between €120 million (£103m/$129m) and €130m (£111m/$140m).

The transfer is expected to be finished before summer, although no formal announcement is expected anytime soon, according to RMC Sport. Frederic Hermel, a journalist, states: “What I was told several weeks ago is that Real would like to announce it in April-May, not before, because of the risk of confrontation in the Champions League. What I am told in Madrid is that Real does not want to humiliate PSG in this story. The club wants to consider that it is not Real who steals Mbappe from PSG, but Mbappe who leaves his club after seven years and who is free. Real Madrid has been very forward on the issue and has twice been hit in the face. So they did not want to be in this situation.”

Mbappe is also awaiting word from Real on whether or not he may compete in the Paris Olympic Games in 2024. Although PSG gave the club’s all-time top scorer the choice as part of their offer, it appears he will be taking on a fresh challenge at Santiago Bernabeu.
