Having long been linked with a move to the Spanish capital, Mbappé announced last month that he will be leaving Paris Saint-Germain once his contract expires this summer.
Mbappé has been on Los Blancos' radar for seven years, and finally, they've got their hands on the 25-year-old.
The Frenchman will officially join Madrid on July 1, when his PSG contract comes to an end, with Mbappé signing a five-year contract.
