Madrid Looking To Implement "Kylian Mbappe Law"

File photo dated May 28, 2023 shows Kylian Mbappe during the 31th edition of the UNFP (French National Professional Football players Union) trophy ceremony, in Paris, France. According to Mundo Deportivo, the self-governing body of the Madrid region is about to enact the “Mbappe Law” in an effort to assist the team in acquiring the superstar, who is 25 years old. Mbappe is expected to receive a big salary and might potentially set a global record as a signing bonus, even though the move will formally be a free transfer. As a result, it will put the club’s finances under extreme strain. But a measure from the regional government aims to help Real Madrid land their man and lessen the huge pay cut he will inevitably experience upon finalising his departure. According to Mundo Deportivo: “The Community of Madrid is processing the approval of the so-called Mbappe Law that will eliminate regional personal income tax for foreigners who settle in the capital of Spain and carry out investments.
