      Several clubs have already expressed an interest in signing him on a free transfer, including Premier League giants Arsenal and Liverpool.
      However, Mbappe is reportedly “leaning towards” joining Real Madrid.

      Mbappe came close to making the move in 2022, but shocked the football world by announcing a two-year extension with PSG instead.

      He caused a stir among the PSG camp last summer after refusing to sign a new contract.
      The Parisians subsequently accepted a huge £259million offer from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal for him, but Mbappe rejected the move.
      He was axed from the squad for a brief period and sent to train with PSG’s “undesirables” – a group of players not wanted by the club.
      However, he made a return at the start of the Ligue 1 campaign and has since scored 31 goals in 30 appearances across all competitions.

      Real Madrid have already proposed a deal to Mbappe ahead of the summer, but his representatives have reportedly been left unimpressed.
      The Frenchman is set to receive a total of £62m plus bonuses from PSG for the 2023-24 campaign, but Real Madrid are unable to match that.

      According to Spanish outlet AS, the La Liga giants are hoping to pay Mbappe less than his £42.8m – around £827,000-a-week – starting point.
      However, he is still set to become the club’s highest-paid player, surpassing Jude Bellingham by a significant margin.
      The England international currently rakes in around £220,000-a-week – £11.4m-a-year – at the Santiago Bernabeu, much less that what Mbappe is demanding.
      In fact, the difference between the two players’ weekly wages would be around £358,000, roughly £138,000 MORE than Bellingham’s standard weekly earnings.
      Mbappe reportedly also wants several bonuses added into his contract.
      The World Cup winner joined PSG in a £154m transfer from Monaco in 2018 and has since scored 243 goals and provided 105 assists in 290 appearances.

      Premier League leaders Liverpool are also interested in the forward but will not break their wage structure to sign the star who is currently on a contract worth more than £500million at PSG. More

      The World Cup winner, who has 29 goals so far this campaign, could soon be lining-up in a star-studded attack with Brazilian Vinicius Jr and England star Jude Bellingham.

      Now Cadena SER have claimed that the forward has made three staggering financial demands in order to complete the move.
      The first starts with his eye-watering £42.6m per year salary – which is almost double the likes of what Vinicius and Bellingham earn.

      “The debt that he owes to Real Madrid is almost impossible to pay. He must own up to his error and know that money is not the most important thing.” More

      Andy Brassell told talkSPORT that this could be as much as £128.5million — £13.5m more than the £115m Real paid Borussia Dortmund for Bellingham last summer.
      He said: “Of course the fact is Mbappe will be leaving about €80million (£68.5m) on the table as well in terms of loyalty bonus.
      “That is how he got himself back in the team at PSG in autumn by agreeing to that.
      “A free transfer as a free transfer is not free. There’s always a huge signing-on fee.

      Brassell also revealed Mbappe is likely to be taking a 50 per cent pay cut to move to Real.
      But that will still see him earn a massive £30m-a-year.
      Brassell added: “We have said all along that this move wasn’t about money.
      “Now, bear in mind, that he’s been earning under his contract at PSG for the last coming up to two years €72m (61.5m) per year before tax.
