To those who think he is depressed, Kylian Mbappé responded this Sunday in the Clique show broadcast on Canal+: “I had times when I was tired but I wasn’t depressed. There are people who are really depressed, we have to help them. At one point I felt exhausted. I didn’t have any periods of rest, I had sporting disappointments. »
A 5-year contract worth more than €45 million overall
The Blues and Real Madrid striker is lucid about his unique life as that of an internationally known professional footballer and the privileges that give him the position. Even though it also has its downside, in particular the enormous dose of pressure endured daily from the media, from its club and from the supporters.
Because financially, Kylian Mbappé earns every month what ordinary mortals will never receive in their entire life. With Real Madrid, the figures surrounding his contract are sometimes contradictory but they generally agree on a salary estimated at 26 million euros per year, expressed in gross and various bonuses, including a signing bonus which would be of 100 million euros, smoothed over the five years of his contract.
Mbappé earns less with Real Madrid than at PSG
Every day, the captain of the France team would therefore receive remuneration of around 126,027 euros gross. Obviously less after removal of social and employer contributions and income tax. He joined Real Madrid on the first day of July which is also the start of the new 2024-2025 season.
-This December 9, 161 days have passed since his transfer from Paris SG to Real Madrid. That is to say that Kylian Mbappé has already earned the equivalent of 20.3 million euros. And surely more by adding the income from his image rights which he shares in part with his Madrid employer (it is said that the deal is 80% for his benefit and the rest for the benefit of Real). Remember that he was approaching the 66 million euros gross per year from his previous contract with PSG. If money, says the adage, does not necessarily bring happiness, it can still contribute to it, especially in the most difficult times. Kylian Mbappé is well aware of this.
