Alonso Demands Mbappé Signing as Condition for Chelsea Role

🇬🇧 20 May 2026

Xabi Alonso has stated that signing Kylian Mbappé is a prerequisite for him to take charge of Chelsea. Owner Todd Boehly is reportedly ready to allocate €150 million for the Real Madrid forward.

Mbappé is currently a forward at Real Madrid. His market value is linked to the €150 million figure mentioned by Chelsea.

The €150 million sum is being prepared by Chelsea's ownership under Todd Boehly. This amount would cover the transfer fee for the player.

Alonso's condition ties his prospective managerial appointment directly to the completion of the Mbappé transfer. Without the signing, the appointment would not proceed.

The demand places significant pressure on Chelsea's transfer strategy. The club must decide whether to meet the €150 million price tag.

The upcoming weeks will reveal if Chelsea can finalize the deal and appoint Alonso as manager. The outcome will shape the club's plans for the season.
