In an agreement he reached with the club last summer, the source claims Mbappe waived bonuses amounting to around 60 to 70 million euros ($65.6 million to $76.6 million), covering the club financially in the event of his likely departure when his contract expires in June.
Mbappe has been free to sign anywhere he wishes since the transfer window opened on Monday. French daily Le Parisien cites an 80 million euro âloyalty' bonus that he should have received last September, and other bonuses taking the total to 100 million euros.
