Kylian Mbappe completes transfer to Paris Saint-Germain where he will partner with Neymar to form deadly strike force
It is reported that PSG will pay an astonishing €180 million for Mbappe, who burst onto the scene last season in sensational style
No financial details were given by PSG in their statement on Thursday, but the permanent deal would be from 2018-22.
Although no transfer fee has been given by either French club, it was widely reported that PSG will pay an astonishing €180 million (HK$1.68 billion) for Mbappe, who burst onto the scene last season in sensational style.
“It’s with great joy and pride that I’m joining Paris Saint-Germain,” Mbappe said in a statement. “For all young people who grew up in the Paris region, it’s often a dream to be able to wear the red and blue shirt.”
It means that PSG now have unprecedented status as effectively owning the world’s two most expensive players, with Brazil star Neymar bought for a world record €222 million.
