Seen from Spain, the future of Kylian Mbappé could be clarified in the coming weeks. Real Madrid reportedly intend to give the French world champion an ultimatum.
The Mbappé soap opera should accelerate in the coming weeks. Consequence of his contractual situation. Despite his extension, in spring 2022, the Parisian striker will in fact be at the end of his contract next June and therefore free to discuss with the clubs of his choice from 1er January. A boon for his courtiers, first and foremost Real Madrid, who have not given up on attracting the former Monegasque.
But according to AS, the Merengue club is determined to learn from its mistakes. Two years ago, Madrid leaders had indeed strived for months to convince Kylian Mbappé to join Real and were taken by surprise when he made an about-face to finally extend with PSG. So this time, the Madrid club intends to set the rules of the game.
Thus, if the top scorer has not actually extended by the 1ster January, he will formally open discussions in the first days of 2024. But Kylian Mbappé will have to quickly decide. If he has not decided on January 15, Real will change his mind and focus on the arrival of Erling Halaand, who is certainly under contract with Manchester City until 2027 but has a fixed release clause at 200 million euros allowing a transfer from 2024. “If Mbappé delays the proposal and after January 15 he still does not decide, Madrid will close the chapter with Mbappé and activate plan B, led by Erling Haaland”writes AS
