Inside Kylian Mbappe’s £9million Madrid mansion where Gareth Bale used to live with stunning pool and golf area
KYLIAN MBAPPE has wasted no time in settling into life at Real Madrid by moving into Gareth Bale’s former pad.
The stunning £9million mansion is situated in the exclusive town of La Finca.
And it’s just eight miles north of Madrid’s city centre, making it an ideal base for Real’s new man.
Mbappe joined the Spanish, and continental, champs on a stunning free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain this month.
The striker is regarded as one of world football’s top players after netting 256 goals in just 308 matches in the French capital.
And Real will be hoping Mbappe can fire them to more glory after they completed a brilliant league and European double under Carlo Ancelotti.

But if he enjoys the success of the man who once occupied his new house, Mbappe will likely go down as a Bernabeu legend.
The ace is now living in Bale’s former mansion after acquiring it for £9m.
The swanky pad boasts numerous perks including eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and a garage big enough for six cars.
Not only that, it features a huge swimming pool and cinema room.

While outside, Bale made sure to install a football field, a basketball court and a golf course.
Mbappe will be well protected too, with the property boasting the latest security measures including facial recognition technology, a double perimeter gate with cameras, and an alarm system directly linked to the police.
World Cup winner Mbappe will also have 24-hour security guards making the rounds.
And he will certainly be hoping his new home provides the perfect base to make his Real Madrid career a storming success.
The house was sold by luxury property agency Realizza, who cater for numerous VIP clients.
Their website said about the property: “It is a new way of life for all those who seek above all exclusivity, tranquility, confidentiality and above all, security.
“This concept is the key to satisfying the needs of such distinguished clients like politicians, bullfighters, artists, footballers, big businessmen and families of great social relevance who seek discretion and independence.”
Before Mbappe, Bale paid £6.5m for the mansion when he moved to Madrid from Tottenham in 2013.

KYLIAN MBAPPE has entered his physical prime as he has FINALLY rubber-stamped his free transfer move to Real Madrid.
The 25-year-old has grown from a boy to a man in Ligue 1, first with Monaco and then with current side Paris Saint-Germain.
Mbappe debuted for Monaco as a skinny 16-year-old in 2015.
He even featured as a scrawny youngster against Tottenham at the old White Hart Lane that year, before fans realised what an icon he would become.
The following season, Mbappe really rose to superstardom as Monaco reached the Champions League semi-finals.
In a throwback snap shared earlier this week, an 18-year-old Mbappe could be seen chatting to a reporter after grabbing a Champions League brace against Borussia Dortmund in April 2017.
