On Monday evening, Real Madrid finally confirmed the signing of French superstar Kylian Mbappe officially, bringing an end to a transfer saga that has been going on for years.
The 25-year-old French superstar will be joining Los Blancos as a free agent this summer, having agreed a five-year contract with the club.
While there may be no transfer fee involved in his signing, Real Madrid will be paying the forward a mammoth €100 million signing bonus. On top of that, the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner would earn around €30 million per year in salary, before taxes.
Real Madrid expect huge windfall
So, while Mbappe’s signing will be a strain on the pockets of Real Madrid, a report from AS claims that the club expects the Frenchman’s arrival will ‘pay for itself’.

Sources say that Real Madrid can ensure ‘a very high return on investment, close to €500 million’, if they activate formulas related to sponsorship, merchandising, and social networks.

Mbappe, who is associated with brands such as Nike, Oakley and Hublot, earns around 20 million per season from sponsorship. Each Instagram post of his can generate €85,000 for him.
It will be a question of what percentage of those rights he is willing to cede to Real Madrid, a club that has always based its return on major signings partly on the commercialisation of those signings.
It is possible that the sponsorship deals signed prior to his arrival will be respected and a portion of those agreed after his arrival will be secured.
What is clear is that, whatever the percentage, the Real Madrid brand is revalued with the arrival of a global star such as Mbappe
The 2023/24 season proved to be a memorable one for Andriy Lunin at Real Madrid as he finally had a proper breakthrough with the Spanish capital club.
Even though he has been at the club for years now, the Ukrainian international was initially farmed out on loan and then played second-fiddle to Thibaut Courtois.
Man City sue Premier League over ‘discrimination’ and date set for unprecedented hearing
Manchester City have accused the Premier League of ‘discrimination against Gulf ownership’ in relation to ‘success-stifling’ rules approved by their rivals.
The Premier League champions are campaigning for the removal of the Associated Party Transaction (APT) rules, as per The Times.
City claim the rules – which were introduced following the Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United – are unlawful and were approved by rival clubs in an attempt to stifle their success.
It’s argued the rules are designed to stop clubs from inflating commercial deals with companies that boast links to their owners.
Instead, sponsorships have to be independently assessed and will only be approved if they’re considered ‘fair market value’ (FMV).
As such, the Manchester-based outfit will seek damages from the Premier League at a hearing set to take place next week.
And if they’re successful with their claim – which the report states some clubs are fear they will be – it would allow the Blues to boost the amount of money they can raise via commercial deals.
In turn, that will give the club more scope to spend big on players, at a time when teams elsewhere are struggling to operate under strict Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Pundit says he absolutely loved what he saw from one Man City player last night
Rob Green heaped praise on one particular Manchester City player after what he did while on international duty last night.
After the latest season came to an end with the Citizens winning a fourth Premier League title in a row, the focus for a lot of City players has now turned to the upcoming European Championship in Germany.
While the tournament isn’t set to kick off until the 14th, which will see the hosts take on Scotland for their first group game, numerous friendly matches are taking place this week to help the nations get their teams ready for the main event.
Now though, one specific City star, who could be in action for his country over the summer, has found himself on the end of some praise for his efforts in a recent international friendly game.

Speaking on Channel 4 (via BBC Sport) after seeing Trent Alexander-Arnold score England’s second goal of their 3-0 win over Bosnia-Herzegovina last night, Green had this to say about it and the cross from Jack Grealish that led to the goal.
He said: “The biggest smile in Newcastle. He’s fed up of supplying them, he’s going to take them.
“A brilliant bit of vision from Jack Grealish. It’s outside of the post, it is perfect from Trent Alexander-Arnold.”
Grealish impressed in latest England appearance
With 63 minutes on the clock, with the score at 1-0, the City winger replaced Eberechi Eze and saw out the remainder of the match.
During his time on the pitch, the 28-year-old had 22 touches of the ball in total, accurately completing all 15 passes he attempted and making two key passes as well.
Grealish also drew two fouls and won two of the four duels he was involved in.
In terms of his assist for Alexander-Arnold’s goal, the City star delivered a deep cross to the back post to find the Liverpool full-back, who found the back of the net with an impressive volley to double England’s lead on the day.
This cameo performance earned Grealish an overall match rating of 7/10 from SofaScore, which is higher than the match ratings Marc Guehi (6.7/10) and Ollie Watkins (6.6/10), who both started the game, earned for themselves.
With all of that in mind, it’s safe to say that the winger had a successful cameo appearance in this latest England victory, which should put him in a good position to be included in Gareth Southgate’s final squad for the upcoming tournament.
Real Madrid have a player who really wants to sign for Man City, Pep Guardiola’s side aren’t as keen
It has been reported that one Real Madrid player is more interested in signing for Manchester City than they are in securing his services.
Real Madrid have one of the best squads in Europe and a majority of the talent at their disposal would stroll into most teams in the continent — explaining their dominance in the Champions League over the past decade.
But the same can be said for Manchester City, who have top players across every position — making their transfer requirements very specific.
Real Madrid star keener on Man City move than they are in signing him
In the summer transfer window, as is usually the case with City, they will focus on bringing players in who fit Pep Guardiola’s philosophy — especially considering he has been rumoured to leave the club in 2025.
If the Sky Blues struggle to spot such talent on the market, it is unlikely that they will sign a player just for the sake of it, unlike other top European clubs.
However, it has been revealed by The Athletic that the player in question is Rodrygo, to whom the idea of signing for Manchester City appeals more to than the club itself.
Man City summer transfer window 2024: Confirmed signings, departures, loan exits and releases
On Friday, it was claimed that the Brazilian has no interest in leaving Real Madrid, with him and his representatives considering their project the best in the world.
Manchester City must change Rodrygo stance
In our view, Manchester City must veer away from their current stance on Rodrygo and make him one of their main transfer priorities.
With the two-time Champions League winner being only 23 and having a contract at Real Madrid until 28, any club trying to secure his services would have to stump up a handsome fee.
However, Rodrygo is the calibre of player who justifies being a big-money signing and he would fit like a glove at Manchester City.
The former Santos attacker is capable of playing on both flanks at a high level and alongside Jeremy Doku, he could form a potentially legendary wing duo. City currently only have one natural winger on their books in Doku and Rodrygo is a far more established and polished player than him.
The silky dribbler is also well-capable of playing as a striker and he could give Pep Guardiola the option to deploy him centrally in the absences of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez.
There are not many players of the quality, versatility and winning experience Rodrygo has at such a young age.
If the three-time La Liga winner is genuinely open to signing for the Sky Blues, they should pounce at the opportunity to make the deal a reality.

Atletico Madrid make initial contact to sign Manchester City player – Shock move could be tempting
Atletico Madrid have a ‘great desire’ to sign Manchester City’s Julian Alvarez, according to Marca.
The La Liga side are in the market for a striker, and their focus is on the 24-year-old. They are aware it won’t be easy to negotiate a deal with the Citizens, but efforts are ongoing to try to sign him.
Alvarez has a long-term deal [until 2028] at Manchester City, and Atletico are unlikely to match his salary demands. This hasn’t put them off.
Pep Guardiola has favoured Erling Haaland ahead of Alvarez in the last two years, and Marca say Los Rojiblancos will use the lure of regular playing time to tempt him to join them.
The Argentina international could consider leaving Manchester City, more so if they were to bring in a new attacker in the summer window.
Marca say Atletico have made first contact to find out if the World Cup winner favours joining them, but there have been no discussions with Manchester City so far.
Atletico’s Nahuel Molina, Angel Correa and Rodrigo De Paul have informed Alavrez of the advantages of representing the club. The trio could also try to find out if he’s willing to join them in Madrid, having those chats during the Copa America.
In short, Simeone’s side are aware it’ll be a complex operation, but they are going to give it a try. They have taken the first step by initiating contact with Alvarez’s camp.

TRANSFERSManchester City ‘firmly focussed’ on £100 million midfielder – Two first-team stars could be involved in ‘compromise deal’
Officials within the Etihad Stadium remain ‘firmly focussed’ on the signing of Newcastle United and Brazil international midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.
The 26-year-old is widely expected to be at the centre of somewhat of a transfer scramble in the coming months, with a number of clubs admiring his abilities and some keen to take advantage of the fact that the Magpies are held to a nine-figure release clause.
While some clubs may not be willing to trigger such a clause at its £100 million valuation, there is likely to be negotiations to be had over offering a deal that comes close to such an amount or appeals to Eddie Howe and his coaching staff in terms of makeweight personnel.
Manchester City are one of those clubs, alongside their Premier League title rivals for the last two seasons Arsenal, with a number of uncertainties within their first-team midfield ranks as the summer market approaches.
Bernardo Silva continues to hold some uncertainty over his future, having eyed a move away from the Etihad Stadium for the last three seasons, while Kalvin Phillips is highly likely to find a way out of the club on either a permanent or temporary agreement.
Now, according to the information of Manchester City insider ‘Tolmie’s Hairdoo’ on X, Etihad Stadium bosses remain firmly focused on signing Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United this summer.
However, while it has been well-documented that the Brazilian international has a £100 million release clause valid the end of June, both the midfielder and Manchester City are hopeful of a ‘compromise deal’, as per the

Sergio Aguero reacts with four words fans will love as Manchester City send birthday message
Mon 3 June 2024 19:00

Manchester City sent a birthday message to Sergio Aguero at the weekend, and the Etihad Legend gave a response fans will love.
Manchester City recently secured their fourth straight Premier League title, beating West Ham United on the final day of the season to edge out Arsenal.
That was Pep Guardiola‘s sixth as City manager, and the eighth in the club’s history.
The very first, of course, came back in 2012 – and it could not have arrived in more dramatic fashion.
City fans will never forget the emotions of going 2-1 down against QPR, before turning it around to win and break Manchester United hearts.
The man responsible for arguably the most famous Premier League goal ever was Sergio Aguero, and on Sunday he sent a message to City fans after seeing the club use it to mark his birthday…

There will likely never again be a final day quite like the 2011/12 Premier League season.
City had their noses in front heading to the final round of fixtures and on any other day, the team would have wiped the floor with strugglers QPR.
But there was a first league title at stake, and nerves were in the air.
City took the lead against QPR through Pablo Zabaleta, but the visitors hit back through Drjibril Cisse. The nerves then took hold, with Jamie Mackie giving QPR a shock lead. Meanwhile, United were leading against United.
City found a late equaliser though through Edin Dzeko, before potentially the most famous Premier League moment of all-time took place; Sergio Aguero collected a pass from Mario Balotelli and evaded a challenge from Taye Taiwo before lashing home at the near post.

Scenes of bedlam ensued, and Aguero etched his name into the City history books forever.
On Sunday, the club posted on X to mark Aguero’s 36th birthday, and simply had to share his famous goal. Aguero replied ‘Always in my heart’. He also added a blue heart for good measure.
What a player

It is lovely to see Aguero acknowledging the post from City, and he clearly still cares deeply about the club and the fans.
Quite simply, his goal against QPR in 2012 was one of the most extraordinary moments in the history of football.
He will forever be adored by City fans for that moment alone, but of course, he was a sensational player during his 10 years at the club.
Undoubtedly, he is one of the greatest strikers the Premier League has ever seen. Not only was he lethal, but he was also a brilliant technician and creator, as evidenced by his 65 assists for the club.
He was truly fearsome, and it was a pleasure to see him don the sky-blue shirt.
