Real Madrid are apparently willing to part with €225 million for the transfer of Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint Germain this summer.
Los Blancos were initially not ready to splash the cash on Mbappe this summer as they seemingly opted for him to join the club on a free transfer.
Reports have claimed that Real Madrid want a 10% discount from Paris Saint Germain asking price of €250 million.
The 14-time Champions League winners are also willing to wait it out in order to force the hands of the Parisians.
Kylian Mbappe has been the center of speculation for months, as his future continues to lie in uncertainty.
Paris Saint Germain stance on Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid
PSG reportedly believe the France International has agreed a deal in principle with Real Madrid and he is waiting to see out his contract with the club.
Earlier this summer, the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner bluntly shared his position with Paris Saint Germain concerning remaining at the Parc Des Princes.
The 24-year-old stated his desire to exit the club, bluntly expressing that he isn’t going to pen a new deal with the club.
With the shocking nature of the transfer market, there have also been astonishing offers for Kylian Mbappe with Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal reportedly interested in securing his signature.
However, further reports indicated that the Frenchman instantly rejected Al Hilal’s offer as he decided not to discuss with their representatives on any juicy proposal available.
Meanwhile, Mbappe’s mother, Faiza Lamary, told the management of Real Madrid of the entire issue regarding her son’s transfer fee and Real Madrid are intensifying efforts to negotiate for a lesser amount.
Paris Saint Germain accepted Al Hilal’s €300 million offer for the France International but the player was unwilling to move to the Gulf state.
Mbappe’s mother and his agent are making efforts to reduce PSG’s price tag on the Frenchman
In that regard, Kylian Mbappe’s mother, agent and Kia Joorabchian are making efforts to lower PSG’s asking price.
The €225 million which Real Madrid are proposing to part with, will include a portion going to the former Monaco attacker and his family.
That amount would usurp the world-record transfer fee of €222 million which Paris Saint Germain paid to Barcelona in 2017 to sign Neymar.
Los Merengues will certainly offer below the price tag the Ligue 1 champions are requesting if they want to sign him this summer, irrespective of PSG’s asking price.
Kylian Mbappe is the Parisians all-time top scorer with 212 goals, having surpassed the 200 goals tally of Edinson Cavani during the 2022/23 season.
He scored 41 goals and provided 10 assists in 43 appearances for Paris Saint Germain across all competitions last season.
The Frenchman is apparently eager to win the UEFA Champions League and that is also what has spurred his desire to join Real Madrid.
