The news which all associated with Spanish giants Real Madrid have been awaiting has this evening at long last been confirmed.
Kylian Mbappé, after a transfer saga spanning a full two years, has now agreed to take his talents to Madrid this summer.
The name of frontman Mbappé, of course, has returned to the forefront of the headlines with a bang on Thursday.
This comes amid widespread confirmation that the 25-year-old, at long last, has informed his long-time employers at Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain of his decision to depart in the summer.
Florentino Pérez and the Real Madrid brass, in turn, have been afforded the green light to push a pre-contract agreement with Mbappé over the line, with a view to a summer transfer.
And, late on Thursday, the framework of a deal, it is understood, has been concluded.
As per a report from L’Equipe, Mbappé has verbally agreed to take his talents to the Santiago Bernabéu for next season.
In the process, the France international will at long last fulfill his childhood ‘dream’, of pulling on the colours of European club football’s most successful side.
