When and how did Mbappé come to PSG?
In the summer of 2017, Paris Saint-Germain showed great interest in Mbappé and embarked on negotiations with AS Monaco to sign him. Backed by investment from Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund, he had the financial capacity to make a major transfer. After several weeks of negotiations, he reached an agreement with the rojiblanco team for ‘Donatello’.
The transfer agreement was set out in the form of an assignment with a mandatory purchase option. PSG paid a significant amount on loan and agreed to pay an additional fee at the end of the season. The total deal reportedly amounted to more than €180m, making Mbappé one of the most expensive players ever.
