Kylian Mbappe has revealed he will make an announcement about his future before Euro 2024 gets underway.
Mbappe, 25, told PSG back in February that he would leave the club when his contract expires this summer.
The forward has long-been linked with a move to Real Madrid and almost joined Los Blancos in the summer of 2022, before he made a late U-turn and penned a new deal with the Ligue 1 side.
However, Real has reportedly reached an agreement with Mbappe this time around that will see the forward join on a free transfer in the summer, with an £85.5m signing on fee, meaning the Spanish giants will finally get their man after a seven-year pursuit.
There has been no official announcement surrounding his future yet though, but Mbappe explained that one would be forthcoming ahead of this summer’s tournament in Germany, where he will captain France.
“People will know my future before the Euros. I’m very calm about it,” he told Telefoot.
“My future is no longer a huge topic at the club, no one talks to me about it anymore.
“I’ll be at the Euros with calm head, ready to do great things.”
Mbappe’s announcement to PSG last month gave Real the green light to sign him after they wanted a public show from Mbappe that he intended to leave the French club this time before making their move.
It was also interpreted as a clear signal Mbappe is prepared to drop his financial demands. Fourteen-time European Cup winners Madrid have always maintained they would not compete financially with PSG.
The Spanish club’s unwillingness to smash their wage structure to match the £21.4million annual salary the Frenchman earns in Paris after tax is no longer a problem, as there would be no transfer fee to pay.
Mail Sport reported last month that Madrid is willing to make Mbappe the club’s top earner, surpassing the £10.3m per season they pay Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior.
