The 23-year-old has apparently come to a decision

PSG star Kylian Mbappe has revealed that he's made a decision on his future and is set to announce the same next month right before joining the French national team.

The 23-year-old is out of contract with the Parisians this summer and has been widely linked with a move to Real Madrid, who've been long-term admirers of his.

PSG are keen to keep him but the player has already turned down two contract proposals, fueling exit speculations.

Their Spanish counterparts are confident of reaching a deal despite image rights issues with Mbappe, who's set to be offered a five-year contract with €100 million signing-on bonus and €25 million in yearly wages.

With time now running out, the World Cup winner has said that he's made up his mind, but won't make his decision official until the conclusion of the 2021-22 season.

He said (via Fabrizio Romano):

“I will officially announce my decision on the future before I join the France national team in June. It’s matter of days then it will be official."
“This isn’t the right moment but yes, yes… my decision is almost done."

According to Spanish transfer expert Javier Herraez, an agreement between him and Los Blancos has been reached and Mbappe will be a Real Madrid player next season.

Frankly, after such strong links, it's hard to see any other outcome at this point. It would be a real shocker if Mbappe stays put in Paris after this.

His decision not to announce anything until June might have to do with Real Madrid's Champions League final on May 28, another indicator that he's indeed switching allegiance.

Mbappe joined PSG from AS Monaco for a staggering €180 million transfer, initially on loan, in 2017. Since then, he's struck 168 goals and made 87 assists from 216 games, lifting 11 titles.


PSG ace to bolster Real Madrid's frightening attack

Real Madrid have been among the most prolific sides in all of Europe this season, and watching Mbappe spearhead such a side would be a terrifying prospect for both La Liga and Europe.

His goalscoring average has been phenomenal since joining PSG in 2017, while also having displayed his playmaking skills with a raft of assists.

The 23-year-old has made no secret of his desire to win the Champions League and the Ballon d'Or someday, and Real Madrid can offer him a platform to accomplish both.
