Tik Tok Tik Tok Tik Tok Real Madrid finally officially announced Mbappe today. Even though we all already know about Fabrizio Romano information, when the announcement comes directly from Real Madrid it will be even more exciting. Welcome Mbappe to the biggest, greatest and most luxurious club in Europe. Now the task is clearer and will look forward to a brighter future.

With so many sources leaking this since a few days ago about mbappe's transfer to the real madrid, there are no surprises here. This was disclosed even by Mbappe during his conversation with Macron in the last day. Congrats mbappe, you deserved it to play in a team that was 100 times better than PSG. He is moving forward in his career much more than previously considering real amdrid is the only way for him to reach his peak career. Going to the Real Madrid is such a huge success because Mbappe was never able to win a UCL on PSG.

Now he is a member of one of the largest football teams in the world, which currently holds the most UCL titles. Real Madrid has been playing so brilliantly during the previous seasons. Ancellotti has once more built the best team. The fact that Real Madrid is introducing mbappe to Santiago Bernabeu makes this even more incredible.
One of the best players joining Real Madrid is incredible. With their current roster, Madrid is complete. There will be no more player purchases for the club. This season at PSG, Mbappe has been playing really well.
Ancellotti will be honing him even more than he is now. Happy to see the transfer drama involving mbappe finally coming to a close.

It would have somehow been a very unique achievement if he won the ballon d'or during his stay at PSG, but he had to realize that the league is not his level and it was a waste of his time in some respects. He stayed for the money and there is nothing bad to be said about players who decide to give themselves some time at a club other than Real Madrid. But staying for seven years in Ligue 1?

I was interested in Mbappe's new salary and found this website. As always it is hard to verify any information about players' salaries and bonuses and what not, but it is said that he earned "£171m every year while at Paris Saint-Germain". Man that is unreal. If this is true and I dont know whether anyone here has some sources verifying this as there are numbers all over the place about his salary, it would have made him £1,190m - £1.19 billion - in seven years. Whatever the number is, he is probably close to being a billionaire.

But as was expected, any money that Real Madrid would have had to spend on transfer fees now more or less went into his pockets. He receieved a "signing bonus worth £128m over five years." On top of that comes the salrary of "around £246,154 every week". This is about £200m for five years. Given that his bank account is already nuts, still making £40m in salaries and bonuses alone is unbelievable. There are no sponsorships and other income sources included. What a lucky guy.

But apart from all these financials, Real Madrid is turning into a monster. Having two players on the field like Vinicius Junior and Mbappe is a nightmare for any opponent no matter who the opponent is. Whatever the case though, I am looking forward to some great La Liga games and this transfer raises the bar a lot for Barcelona as there is hardly any realistic way to counter such a transfer coup. In the next few years they can only hope to get lucky to raise some Messi-like player out of coincidence and Real Madrid won't stop here. With that team, there is no more pressure and they have all the time in the world to now cherry pick only. Bellingham so young, Mbappe has almost a decade to go, many other young talents on the rise. Golden times are waiting for that club.
