Documents from the whistleblower platform Football Leaks that have been reviewed by German website Der Spiegel together with its partners at the European Investigations Collaboration, an international network of journalists, have revealed Kylian Mbappé move to PSG.
In the summer of 2017, 13-time UEFA Champions League winner Real Madrid had agreed a €180m deal with AS Monaco over the signing of the French winger, on which €30m bonus-fees was added.
Monaco were ready to sell their promising forward not only because of the offer but because they could not satisfy two of the conditions requested by the 19-year-old.
First, Mbappé wanted Monaco to make him the club's highest paid player over Colombian Radamel Falcao (who was earning €8millions per year at that time) and that his tax wages be taken care of by the Ligue 1 outfit
His move to the Real Madrid was on the verge of being concluded only for the French club to be aware of a €34m taxes imposed by Spain's law over the transaction that had to be paid.
The Spanish giants agreed to pay the fees but Monaco decided not to do business with them, instead they loaned the player to rivals PSG for a year, before his move was made permanent after the Parisian club completed the payment of his buy-out clause of €180m.
It was the wish of the player to join Paris Saint-German because of the numerous benefits he will be receiving from the club. Mbappé will earn a total of €5m as signing bonuses and would be paid €50m as salary over the five years of his contract.
He also receives €30,000 monthly as allowance so he can pay his personal employees; a caretaker, a driver and a bodyguard.
But Mbappe had other needs on which PSG decided not to give suitable answers to. The young man, if he were to win the Ballon d'Or award, wanted to earn more than Neymar and had demanded a private jet available to him for 50-hour yearly, PSG refused.
Football Leaks also revealed that Jorge Mendes is the man fixing the huge fees. Cristiano Ronaldo and Jose Mourinho's most famous agent is said to be receiving 5% percent of the total amount generated from the transfer.
