Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are reportedly prepared to make star forward Kylian Mbappe the world's highest-paid player to prevent the Frenchman from potentially making a move to Real Madrid during the summer transfer window.
The 23-year old has heavily been linked to the Santiago Bernabeu after he has not signed a contract extension at the Parc des Princes, with the deal set to expire in the summer. The French club is reportedly keen on offering him a more lucrative deal as they see the 23-year old perhaps being one of the best players in the world for the next decade.
According to The Independent, PSG is planning to offer Mbappe a whopping salary in excess of £500,000, something that has not been received by anyone in the sport. Such an exorbitant salary would prevent Real Madrid from making any sort of a similar deal.
Mbappe is unlikely to be short of suitors considering his outstanding form for PSG in both Ligue 1 and the UEFA Champions League. The Frenchman's goal at the Parc des Princes was the decider in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) Round of 16 first leg tie against Real Madrid as the Ligue 1 giants beat their Spanish opponents 1-0.
