The drama surrounding Kylian Mbappe’s transfer seems to be continuing as a fresh rumor suggests Liverpool is willing to give the French striker a massive signing-on fee and salary.
However, even if the Telegraph claims that he wants an annual salary of £65 million (€75 million) after taxes, it will not even come close to matching his existing terms in Paris.
That’s an astounding £1.25 million (or €1.4 million) every week.
Indeed, Liverpool and it seems Real Madrid won’t be paying that either. It must be very costly if Florentino Perez, the president of Madrid, says so.
Real Madrid and Liverpool are ill-prepared to satisfy Kylian Mbappe’s expectations.
When Mbappe’s contract expires at the end of the season, he should and will depart, according to Spanish news outlet Le Figaro Sport, for both professional and personal reasons.
It appears that Mbappe and “those around him” know that the only Saudi Pro League teams willing to give him what he is now making is the Saudi Pro League.
It is alleged that “Real Madrid and Liverpool” are willing to agree to pay a substantial signing-on fee as well as a “colossal” salary of approximately £30 million (€35 million).
That ought to be more than sufficient, but given that he has been receiving that sum around every six months, would he be willing to take less?
