Takefusa Kubo was surprised when he found out that Kylian Mbappe was fluent in Spanish. This was revealed by the Real Sociedad striker amidst rumors that the Paris Saint Germain (PSG) striker would join Real Madrid.
It is rumored that Mbappe will soon be moving to Santiago Bernabeu. The 25 year old player has reportedly signed a five year contract with Los Blancos.
If true, Mbappe will leave PSG in the transfer market this summer. However, all of this is still just rumors considering that there has been no official statement from Mbappe or Real Madrid.
The news of Mbappe's move was then strengthened after Kubo chatted with Mbappe. This moment occurred after the PSG versus Real Sociedad (2-0) match in the last 16 of the 2023-2024 Champions League, 15 February 2024.
Kubo revealed that Mbappe was very fluent in Spanish when talking to him. According to the Japanese player, Kylian Mbappe is one step closer to playing in the Spanish League.
“When I spoke to him, I realized that he speaks Spanish very well, that he has developed, I think he is getting ready (for the Spanish League),” said Kubo, quoted from Managing Madrid, Thursday (22/2/2024) .
In this regard, Mbappe's contract with PSG will indeed end in the 2024 summer transfer market. Mbappe, who has reportedly signed a contract with Real Madrid, will experience a significant decrease in salary.
Reportedly, the French national team star will receive a net salary of 15-20 million Euros (Rp. 252-336 billion) per year, which will last for five years. This amount is almost half less than what he earns at Les Parisiens of 32 million Euros (Rp. 539 billion) per year.
