Kylian Mbappé, the sparkling footballer of French nationality, who fulfilled his dream move to Real Madrid in the summer of 2024, has not only become one of the best football players but also a huge financial force. The 25-year-old World Cup winner’s fortune keeps on expanding tremendously through his lucrative playing contracts, sound business investments, and lucrative endorsement deals. Although his on-pitch genius fascinates fans across the globe, Kylian Mbappé’s financial portfolio has also been as stellar, earning him a place amongst the richest in football at a very tender age.
Kylian Mbappé's massive fortune and Real Madrid salary
According to several financial tracking sources, his current net worth is about £140-200 million ($180 million). His recent transfer to Real Madrid came with a huge financial package, surprisingly, a paycheck lower than his previous earnings at Paris Saint-Germain. The French attacker pockets an estimated £250,000 a week after tax, working at Los Blancos, equivalent to £12.8 million in a year.
Nevertheless, the huge signing package between £85-128m spread out through his five-year contract makes this deal very profitable. This massive financial set-up is after his previous contract with Paris Saint-Germain, which reportedly was worth a staggering €630 million (£536 million), making it one of the most expensive contracts in sporting history.
Business ventures and endorsement portfolio
Apart from his playing salary, Kylian Mbappé has proved to be a great businessman with several investments and endorsement ties. The Frenchman has an 80% share in Ligue 2 club SM Caen through his company Interconnected Ventures, which is said to have injected £12.8 million in the venture. He has also launched the media company Zebra Valley and has invested in the electronics brand Loewe this year.
The popularity of the star has led to sponsorship deals with such global brands as Nike (since 2017), luxury watchmaker Hublot (receiving about £1 million yearly), EA Sports (with him as the cover star for several FIFA video game releases), blockchain platform Sorare, and eyewear company Oakley. These endorsement deals collectively earn him about £16.5 million every year, and this is a considerable amount of money towards his total wealth.
The footballer’s luxurious life is a representation of his financial state, with a rumoured £15 million mansion purchase in the exclusive La Moraleja or La Finca areas of Madrid. His impressive automobile collection includes two Ferraris that cost over $1 million in total, a Mercedes-Benz V-Class, and several Volkswagen vehicles worth almost $200,000 altogether.
Fans can watch Kylian Mbappé play when Real Madrid plays Sevilla FC at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on Saturday, May 18, 2025, at 8:00 PM CEST (2:00 PM ET). The match will be televised live on LaLiga TV and other streaming services across the world.
