Kylian Mbappe will start another season tonight (Tuesday, 22:00) in the PSG uniform in the Champions League, when his team will meet Juventus at the home of Maccabi Haifa and the goal is the same: to win the cup with the big ears for the first time. Mbappe will try to sweep the Parisians along with Leo Messi and Neymar, but until a few months ago it was not known at all whether he would play for the French champions this season.

However, the French star put a surprising end to the grueling saga when he extended his contract in Paris. Now, the details of the astronomical contract are being revealed.
The New York Times revealed that Mbappe will earn about 250 million euros over three years in his contract this month, meaning over 80 million euros per season. In addition, it is claimed that the French attacking player received the highest signing bonus in the history of the sport (for a player without a contract) – 125 million euros.
In an interview with the American newspaper, Mbapa He clarified that the money was not what made him make the final decision regarding his stay: “I would get a lot of money wherever I went.”
It was also written: “Despite Kylian’s decision to stay, he is still interested in coming to Real in the future. His contract will expire when he is 26 years old, the Blancos will probably still want him and then even the Qatari money will not be able to change his mind.”
