La Liga president Javier Tebas said that Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) striker Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid next season. The 25-year-old France captain announced last week he is leaving PSG at the end of his contract this summer, without specifying his destination, and Madrid are poised to sign him after years of failed attempts. \u201cHe\u2019s Madrid\u2019s next season, yes,\u201d Tebas told Argentine daily sports newspaper Ole on Monday. \u201cIf they\u2019ve signed a five-year deal, he has five seasons of opportunity (to win the Champions League).\u201d Kylian Mbappe is set to join a star-studded Real Madrid team led by Brazil\u2019s Vinicius Junior and England international Jude Bellingham. Real Madrid strolled to the Spanish title and are in the Champions League final at Wembley against Borussia Dortmund on June 1. \u201c(Mbappe) is one of the best players in the world, but Vinicius and Bellingham are there too, Madrid will have a great squad,\u201d continued Tebas. \u201cBut that does not guarantee you will win leagues.\u201d Mbappe is PSG\u2019s all-time record scorer with 256 goals, having joined the club from Monaco in 2017 for 180 million euros ($194 million). With PSG he won six French league titles but failed to earn Champions League glory, finishing as runners-up to Bayern Munich in 2020. By joining record 14-time winners Real Madrid, Mbappe would increase his chances of finally earning club football\u2019s most prestigious trophy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
