Kylian Mbappe has indicated that he is "a few days away" from being confirmed as a Real Madrid player.

Mbappe then admitted that "some details" need to be finalised when he was asked whether an announcement would be made before he links up with the France national team ahead of Euro 2024.

"I still don't know," Mbappe added. "There are still some details. The most important thing was to win and to experience these final emotions."

The France international finished his final campaign as a PSG player with 44 goals and 10 assists in 48 competitive matches.

In total, Mbappe 308 appearances in his seven-year stay at the Parc des Princes, scoring 256 goals and providing 108 assists.
