‘Le Parisien’: Mbappé wins Real Madrid

27

The Kylian Mbappé soap opera seems to have given the last update before definitively shelving what has been one of the longest transfers in the history of football. According to Le Parisien, the forward has chosen to play for Real Madrid, although the Parisian newspaper does not confirm the agreement with the white team. He will try to finish the season in the best possible way in Paris and give the club from the French capital the Champions League title. Hours later, ESPN confirmed this information citing its own sources.

Pessimism has completely set in in France and in PSG, which called on its star to tell them whether he wanted to continue or not before negotiating a possible renewal, but for weeks it has been slipping that there were no signs in that sense. According to Le Parisien, “the biggest star in French football will join the biggest club in the world next season. Meanwhile, optimism reigns in Madrid while behind the scenes the biggest contract in the locker room for the captain of Les Bleus is being negotiated,” they say.

Mbappé reached an agreement in August with Nasser Al Khelaïfi, in which the player promised to forgive 80 million euros of loyalty bonus so that Paris Saint Germain would not suffer an economic harm in the event that he did not finally sign a renewal. of contract. Le Parisien, even so, affirms that there could be one last twist of the script with the Olympic Games in the French capital, in favor of PSG, but all the parties involved already assume that he will play for Real Madrid next season .

PSG is not aware of Mbappé’s decision

“The battle is lost,” says Le Parisien, alluding to the few signs that Kylian Mbappé has given in recent weeks regarding wanting to continue in Paris. The soap opera, once and for all, seems to come to an end in the summer, with the captain of the French team signing for Real Madrid.

Contrary to what was reported by Le Parisien, Paris Saint Germain is not aware that the player has made a final decision regarding his future. The club wants to repeat the scenario of 2022, when it managed to reach an agreement with the captain of the French team for a two-season renewal. Optimism, although this time to a lesser extent, remains in the French capital, while the media in France, such as this Saturday Le Parisien, are more inclined towards an exit in June.
