KYLIAN MBAPPE is out-of-contract at the end of the season, and widely expected to be joining Real Madrid when his PSG deal expires.

The man himself has even not-so-subtly hinted on multiple occasions that he will be swapping PSG for Real Madrid.

Mbappe, 23, is allowed to sign a pre-contract agreement with Real Madrid from TOMORROW.

And if events over the last 12 months are anything to go by, Marca report it may not be long until Mbappe is officially announced as a Real Madrid player.

His first clue came last summer after PSG rejected a £145m approach from Real Madrid for his services.

An initial £137m bid was rejected prior to that, despite Mbappe making it clear that he wished to leave.

Speaking to L'Equipe in the aftermath of the failed move, Mbappe said: "When you have the ambition to leave, if you stay, you are not happy."

He then echoed his wishes to leave PSG again in October in a second public clue that he wanted out, admitting that 2021 had been a frustrating year for him.

Mbappe told French radio station RMC: "I asked to leave, because from the moment where I did not want to extend, I wanted for the club to receive a transfer fee so that they could bring in a quality replacement."

A third hint was Mbappe being the subject of a comic book, titled 'Je m'appelle Kylian' (My name is Kylian), in which he visits Real Madrid's Bernabeu Stadium as a child.

And in the story he even expresses his desire to one day join the club, as he has also done in real life.

Another mammoth clue that Mbappe is prepared to ditch Paris for Madrid came during an interview with fellow Frenchman and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.

As Henry signed off the interview that was conducted for Amazon, he said 'see you later' to Mbappe… in Spanish.

The pair then looked at each other before bursting into hysterical laughter.

Henry spent three years in Spain as a player with Barcelona, and Mbappe could soon be following in his footsteps with a move to La Liga.

But Mbappe's biggest bombshell in his long-standing love affair with Real Madrid came within the last month.

In an interview with CNN, Mbappe seemingly confirmed that his time at PSG was coming to an end, in what appeared to be some form of a farewell message.

He revealed: "For all the respect I have for the fans, the club, my teammates and the staff, I have to play 100% the six months I have left."

Real Madrid too have 'total belief' that Mbappe will join, according to reports, although a move is unlikely to be confirmed until after the Champions League tie between PSG and Los Blancos.
