Kylian Mbappé earned 72 million euros gross per season at PSG. At his new club, the French striker is paid much less.

By joining Real Madrid after the end of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain, Kylian Mbappé has fulfilled a childhood dream. In the capital of Spain, the Bondy-born player will receive a lower salary than in France.

According to The sunhis emoluments are estimated at 31 million euros per year. This makes him the best-paid Merengue player in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, ahead of David Alaba (22.5 million) and Vinicius Jr (20.8). On the other hand, the Blues captain is not the best-paid player in the Spanish championship.

Mbappé, a relative drop in salary

Indeed, two FC Barcelona players are paid more than PSG’s former number 7. Dutch midfielder Frenkie De Jong leads the salaries in La Liga with an annual income of around 37.5 million euros. His teammate, Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, follows with 33.4 million.

Although his salary is much lower than in Paris, Kylian Mbappé largely compensates for this reduction thanks to the large signing bonus he received when he arrived as a free agent in the “White House”. This could amount to between 100 and 125 million euros. In addition, Ethan’s big brother retains 80% of his image rights, which are generally shared equally with the employer club.
