The situation in the Mbappé file is starting to get seriously tense. While the Parisian star has repeated that he intends to play for PSG next season, the Emir of Qatar is pushing Nasser Al-Khelaifi to sell him to Real Madrid if he refuses to renew.
It’s not arm wrestling, but it’s starting to look like it. Tied for another year with Paris Saint-Germain, Kylian Mbappé refused to extend. The striker also warned that he will respect his contract and that he will therefore be in Ligue 1 until June 2024. Then he will be free and will sign where he wishes, that is to say at Real Madrid. But, this is the scenario seen from the side of the one who has scored 54 goals this season. On the side of his employers, the Emir of Qatar no longer leaves the choice to Nasser Al-Khelaifi, if Mbappé does not extend this summer, then he must be transferred.
Mbappé has PSG at his feet
And, the case must be settled quickly, warns Laurent Perrin, journalist of the Parisian who had been the first to reveal a year ago that the 2018 world champion was going to stay in Paris. The Ile-de-France media specifies that even if meetings have taken place between PSG and Fayza Lamari, Kylian’s mother and representative, the situation is at a total standstill, the wish repeated by NAK being that the player positions himself quickly so as not to not waste too much time at the start of a transfer window which for the moment is completely at a standstill despite the rumours. With or without Mbappé, it is obvious that Paris will not have the same appetite on the transfer market and above all will not have the same budget.

Faced with this, Kylian Mbappé is obviously in a strong position, since only he can accept an extension at Paris Saint-Germain, but he is also the only one who can decide what he will do next season. Whatever Doha says, it is impossible to force the French star to join Real Madrid for a paid transfer this summer, the 24-year-old striker having all the cards in his hands with the prospect of a huge signing bonus if he pays. leaves PSG free in 2024. Le Parisien specifies that for the moment, Florentino Perez has not officially opened discussions with his Parisian counterpart and watches this soap opera with delight, he who had felt humiliated by the reversal of the last year. However, the Emir of Qatar is already preparing the bill. ” In Doha, we can’t imagine selling the best player in the world for less than 200 million euros warns Laurent Perrin. But, here too, it is the Spanish club that rules, Madrid can take the risk of waiting until 2024 to afford Kylian Mbappé. Prepare the popcorn, the Mbappé soap opera has only just begun.
