The world's 10 highest-paid footballers as Mbappe 'agrees to join Real Madrid' in mammoth deal
Kylian Mbappe is reportedly close to sealing a move to Real Madrid.
The PSG star's future has been a major talking point for some time. He has been stalling on a new contract for some time, with his current deal expiring this summer.
The Frenchman has spoken of his desire to join Los Blancos for some time.
And now German outlet Bild claim that Mbappe has agreed to join the Spanish giants.
They add that the superstar has agreed to sign a contract with a yearly salary of £41.5 million, which equates to around £800,000-per-week.
That's almost double the £22m-per-year deal he is currently on at PSG.
Should Mbappe complete a move to Real and he signs the £800,000-per-week contract, he would become the second highest-paid player in the world, according to Radio Times.
