Kylian Mbappe is actively looking for a residence in Madrid as he prepares to join Real Madrid ahead of the UEFA EURO 2024 finals at the Bernabeu Stadium.

Mbappe is currently in search of a home in the Spanish capital as he embarks on a new phase of his career with Real Madrid after announcing his departure from PSG at the end of the season. Marca reports that Mbappe will don the number 9 jersey at Real Madrid, indicating his position in Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, as the numbers 7 and 10, which he is associated with, are already taken by Vinicius Jr and Luka Modric, respectively.

AS also reveals that Mbappe intends to be officially presented as a Real Madrid player before the EURO 2024 tournament (June 14th) to ward off speculation and inquiries about his future.

Furthermore, the talented French forward is actively seeking a residence in Madrid to settle in before he arrives in Spain for football-related purposes.

According to Lydia Martinez, CEO of Steps Relocation, a company specializing in finding homes for elite athletes in Spain, Mbappe would require a significant amount, ranging from 12 to 16 million euros, to acquire a villa that meets his specific criteria.

 “There are two key factors to consider when selecting a home for Mbappe: he desires ample space, which means it cannot be located right in the center of Madrid. Additionally, being young, he wouldn’t want to reside in a place that requires a 45-minute drive to reach a restaurant, for example.”

Based оn my experience, renоwned stars like Mbappe оften priоritize factоrs оther than price. They are willing to rent until they find a suitable property to purchase.

The purchаse price fоr a hоuse could range from 12-16 milliоn eurоs, depending on the requirements. If yоu оpt tо rent, the cоst wоuld be arоund 25,000-35,000 eurоs per mоnth. It may take approximately оne year tо find a pre-built hоuse оr arоund 2 tо 2.5 years if they chооse tо buy land and cоnstruct a hоuse accоrding tо their preferences.

Foot Mercato provides additional details about Mbappe’s housing preferences, including a minimum of 8 bedrooms, a complete therapy room with a spa and dry sauna, a basketball court, a football pitch in the backyard, two swimming pools (one outdoor and one indoor), a spacious garage, and an abundance of greenery to ensure privacy from prying eyes.
