Kylian Mbappé
's contract
with Paris Saint-Germain is coming to an end, and the French player has made the decision not to renew it, opting to leave on a free basis.
Real
Madrid
have emerged as the main candidate to acquire his services, and negotiations between both parties are underway.
However,
what would make this transfer unique is the essential requirement that Mbappé requested to close the agreement.
The main issue that surrounded the negotiations with Mbappé was the economic aspect.
According to the Spanish media,
Real Madrid offered him a contract that includes a bonus of 150 million euros
, distributed in five payments, to acquire his transfer, considering that he arrives at the club free of commitments with other teams.
In addition, he
agreed to a salary of 15,000,000 euros per year for the five seasons that he will sign with the club
.
To this
would be added a percentage of the image rights
for the commercial agreements that Real Madrid closes, which could total approximately
50,000,000 euros per year
.
Until then, everything is fine.
However, one of the additional conditions for his imminent arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu would be that
Merengue also hires Ethan
, Kylian Mbappé's younger brother.
Ethan Mbappé
, a 17-year-old PSG player, would have been part of the conversations between Kylian and Real Madrid.
The Mbappé family's request was clear:
if Kylian joins the white club, they also want Ethan to be signed by Madrid
.
This condition, although unusual, would have been accepted by Real Madrid, demonstrating his commitment to the player and his desire to please his demands.

Ethan,
a talented left-footed midfielder, has made a positive impression at the Parc des Princes
since his debut in December.
His playing style complements that of his brother.
And Merengue's decision to welcome Ethan demonstrates his confidence in the young player's potential and his desire to build a competitive team for the future.
If all goes as planned, Ethan Mbappé
will join Real Madrid on a free transfer once his contract
with PSG ends in June, just like his brother Kylian.
He is expected to have a role in both Carlo Ancelotti's team and
Real Madrid Castilla
, the White House's reserve team, which will allow him to continue developing as a player while adapting to Spanish football.
