The newly crowned champions of Europe, Real Madrid, on Monday, June 3, announced that they have signed star France striker Kylian Mbappe in a five-year deal. The monetary aspects of the deal remain a secret and open to speculation.
"Real Madrid CF and Kylian Mbappé have reached an agreement whereby he will be a Real Madrid player for the next five seasons," Madrid said in a press release uploaded on their official website.
