Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé has decided to leave the Spanish club in the summer of 2027 and hopes to continue his career in the English Premier League, according to reports in social media by journalist François Gallardo.
Frustration in Madrid and the 2027 Departure Timeline
The French star is reportedly angry and frustrated with his situation at the Santiago Bernabéu. Having arrived in the Spanish capital in the summer of 2024 following his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, the forward wanted to win the Champions League, but the team has not secured a major trophy since his arrival.
Behind the scenes, tensions have built. Spanish media reported earlier that the player grew upset with the club over a perceived lack of active backing for his candidacy to win the Golden Ball award presented by France Football. At the same time, club leadership had expressed its own frustrations as early as May 2026 over his leadership qualities in the dressing room, having anticipated a more commanding presence from the forward.
“Kylian Mbappé is angry and disappointed with Real Madrid. He has made the decision to leave the club in the summer of 2027, and Real Madrid does not intend to stand in his way.”

Real Madrid Reaches a Stance on the Transfer
Despite the forward’s current contract running until the summer of 2029, club management will not block his departure when the time comes. Real Madrid values the player’s market worth at an estimated 200 million euros, according to Transfermarkt data cited across sports outlets.
On the pitch, the 27-year-old remains central to the team’s attack. By late September 2026, he had scored eight of the club’s 20 team goals. Across all competitions in the 2026/27 season, he has recorded eight goals and two assists in eight appearances. During his earlier career, he became the top scorer for the France national team with 67 goals and lifted the World Cup in 2018. His career record also includes winning the French championship once with Monaco in 2017, alongside six league titles, four national cups, and three super cups with Paris Saint-Germain, as well as lifting the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup with Real Madrid in 2024.
Looking Ahead to the Premier League and Unresolved Questions
The player’s camp is already eyeing a move to England, with reports pointing directly to the English Premier League as his preferred next destination. Whether an English club will meet the valuation or structure a deal ahead of the 2027 window remains unaddressed by official club statements.
While outlets such as Dynamo Kyiv’s news service note that the intended departure remains officially unconfirmed by the club itself, the convergence of reports from multiple sports desks highlights a widening chasm between the French international and the Spanish giants.
