France captain Kylian Mbappe will join LaLiga giants Real Madrid when his contract with Paris Saint Germain finishes at the end of the season, Le Parisien and ESPN reported Saturday.
Mbappe said last year he would not renew his contract at the Ligue 1 side when it expired at the end of the 2023-24 campaign, allowing him to move on to another club on a free transfer.
French newspaper Le Parisien and ESPN, citing sources, said the 25-year old striker would announce a pre-contract agreement with the 14-time European champions next week.
Media reports last September said Mbappe had agreed to forego loyalty bonuses worth up to 100m euros ($107.84m) to leave PSG as a free agent.
Mbappe was heavily linked with a move to Real in 2022 but announced a contract extension with PSG just weeks before the transfer window opened.
