Mbappe already developing friendship with Real Madrid duo ahead of summer move | OneFootball

According to journalist Jorge Picon (h/t Madrid Zone), Kylian Mbappe has already developed a friendly relationship with Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo.

The reporter mentions that they have met during vacations and events, and Mbappe is in regular contact with several Real Madrid players about his potential move to the club.

Mbappe is clearly preparing for his new life in Madrid as only last week, he announced that he would be leaving Paris Saint-Germain to take the final step for Real Madrid to make an official announcement about his transfer.

This announcement is planned to be made after the Champions League final on June 1. Right now, everyone at Real Madrid is focused on the upcoming match at Wembley. They do not want the excitement around Mbappe’s move to disrupt their current achievements.

No date for presentation, yet!

The exact date for Mbappe’s official presentation at Real Madrid has not been decided yet. However, it could happen before the Euro Cup, depending on PSG’s approval since Mbappe is under contract until June 30.

It is suggested that PSG are eager to move on from the media frenzy and their star player’s decision to leave.

Therefore, it’s possible that Mbappe could be officially presented in Madrid between June 3 and 7, before he heads to the Euro Cup with the French national team. If this is not feasible, the presentation might be delayed until July.

Mbappe already has a house in Madrid

Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid is practically certain. He has already informed some of his future teammates about his arrival, asking them questions about the city and the club.

His good friendships with players like Vinicius and Rodrygo, whom he has met during various events and vacations, will help him settle in smoothly.

On the other hand, the Real Madrid locker room is eagerly awaiting his arrival, which will be celebrated after the Champions League final.

Rumours have it that Mbappe already has a residence in Madrid and he plans to live in the luxurious area of La Moraleja, close to the sports city.

Now, this will be a temporary arrangement while he gets familiar with the city and finds the perfect place to settle down, as this location will allow him to be near his other teammates.
