Real Madrid chose to sell a striker to make room for Mbappe.
Kylian Mbappe is ready to leave Paris Saint-Germain after 2 years of hesitation and now the only problem is where he will choose to go. Almost every sign shows that Real Madrid will be the next stop for the French superstar, but to prepare for the striker’s arrival, Real will have to spend a huge amount of money on salary and bribes.
Even if his salary is reduced, Mbappe will still have the highest income at Real Madrid
To get Mbappe, Real Madrid will have to convince him to reduce his salary compared to his current income at PSG (72 million euros/year). According to sources from Madrid, the Royal team is hoping to negotiate to lower Mbappe’s salary to between 40 and 45 million euros/year, lower than Mbappe’s request of 50 million euros/year.
But no matter what, Mbappe will definitely receive Real Madrid’s highest salary if he agrees to wear the shirt of “Los Blancos”. The contract is expected to have a term of 6 years and Mbappe will pocket up to 180 million euros in bribes. The number is so large that it is expected that Real Madrid will pay this bribe within 3 years instead of paying it all at once.
With the huge income Mbappe can receive by returning to Real Madrid, the Bernabeu team is thinking about sacrificing one of the players they have on hand right now. Real’s force is very strong even without Mbappe. Jude Bellingham has become a new superstar at the club while Vinicius is constantly sublimating even though Karim Benzema is no longer at the club, while Valverde, Tchouameni and Camavinga are in the midfield today. one progresses and becomes versatile.
Modric is determined to leave Real Madrid after this season due to recent consecutive reserve appearances
There will have to be 1-2 players who have to leave, but who does Real Madrid choose? As reported, veteran midfielder Luka Modric will almost certainly leave the club after this season because his age prevents him from playing as much as in previous seasons. The outstanding progress of his juniors in the midfield has caused Modric to continuously be on the bench recently, but he still wants to play to maintain his form for EURO.
However, when Modric’s contract expires at the end of this season, Real will only reduce his salary by 19.7 million euros from the annual salary budget. According to radio station Cadena SER, Real needs to sell another player and that will be striker Rodrygo Goes, a good partner with Vinicius and Bellingham in attack. Real hopes to earn a lot of money from selling Rodrygo to a Premier League club.
Rodrygo has played quite well this season, but because of that, he could be sold by Real to pick up Mbappe
Rodrygo’s case is considered quite unfortunate because he took some time to integrate after moving to Europe, but this season the 23-year-old striker has 13 goals in 35 matches and played especially well in the matches where Vinicius was absent. . The chemistry between Rodrygo with Vinicius, Bellingham and Joselu is highly appreciated, but he is the “worst” player among the young talents on the team’s attack line and is also the most marketable player.
The fee Real Madrid hopes to collect from the sale of Rodrygo is 60 million euros. As for this striker’s position on the right wing, if Mbappe decides to play on the left wing, Real will either let Vinicius move here, or put Brahim Diaz in that position because of his ability to kick to the right and cut in the middle of the shot. This attacking midfielder’s left foot is very dangerous (like the recent goal against Leipzig).
