After months of speculation, Kylian Mbappe took to social media on Friday to confirm he will not stay at Paris Saint-Germain next season. Now, it seems to be a matter of when and not if for him to join Real Madrid.

While Fabrizio Romano reports the Frenchman’s move to the Spanish capital is all but done, Sky Sport‘s transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio claims Real Madrid will announce Mbappe after the 2024 UEFA Champions League final.

On June 1, Carlo Ancelotti’s side will play Borussia Dortmund at Wembley aiming to win the 15th European Cup for Los Blancos. The LaLiga giants will then have between June 2 and June 7 to announce Mbappe before Euro 2024.
