How could one team with such a lucrative history, make a historic fifteenth (!) Champion’s League title taste even sweeter? Just by adding one of the BEST players in the world to the team, former Paris Saint-Germain Striker and 2018 World Cup winner, Kylian Mbappé.
The cherry on top?
Real Madrid signed him for free.
Just 48 hours after beating Borussia Dortmund 2-0 at Wembley Stadium, Real Madrid would take to social media to subtly announce the move.
If you’ve kept up with the transfer saga, this move comes as no surprise whatsoever. The prized man has been linked to Los Blancos for well-over a few years now. Many fans across the world were shocked when Mbappe agreed to sign a one-year extension last summer with his home club, PSG.

Of course, this news might surprise you if your main source for soccer news is famous Twitch streamer, iShowSpeed.
Mbappé’s first game in the historic white & gold won’t be until the UEFA Super Cup against Atalanta (Aug. 14, 3:00 PM EST), but soccer fans around the world will see plenty of him and a plethora of other stars at the upcoming Euros tourney this summer.
France looks in fine form and the prolific forward looks poised to captain the team to glory after notching a goal and two assists just a day ago against Luxemburg.
With a team like the one Real Madrid has assembled, one has to wonder if the ever-elusive continental treble (won by only ten different teams ever) is all but a given at this point.
