Transfers
Kylian Mbappe Transfer
Joined Real Madrid on a free transfer in July 2024 after leaving PSG. We track his confirmed move, contract through 2029, summer 2026 exit chatter and club links — labelled clearly when data is partial.
Latest rumours
Fabrizio Romano (May–June 2026) stated Madrid are not considering an Mbappé exit this summer despite fan backlash and a viral online petition. Florentino Pérez publicly backed him as Madrid's best player. Tabloid links to Liverpool and Manchester City persist — no bid, no medical, rumour tier only.
Status
Mbappé is a Real Madrid player on a five-year deal through June 2029 after joining on a free transfer when his PSG contract expired (official announcement 3 June 2024). Romano and club sources report no advanced exit negotiations or medical scheduling for summer 2026 — the active storyline is retention, not a sale.
Fee
PSG received no transfer fee in 2024; BBC and Guardian reporting cited a €125–150m signing-on bonus spread over five years plus roughly €15m net annual salary. Transfermarkt benchmarks market value around €180m. Any exit before 2029 would likely demand a record fee — none quoted by clubs on our feeds.
