The soap opera around Kylian Mbappé is relaunched: the Spanish press announces the arrival of the French prodigy at Real Madrid and, according to an English journalist, PSG is now ready to financially manage the departure of its star striker at the end of his contract.
The transition to the new year, Sunday evening, is obviously not trivial for Kylian Mbappé. Under contract with PSG until June 2024, the 25-year-old superstar will officially be free to sign his future contract with another club (which will therefore begin next summer). Two years after opting for an XXL extension with the Rouge et Bleu, will the now captain of the France team finally leave for Real Madrid?
In the Spanish capital, we have completely relaunched the soap opera in recent days. According to a journalist from Marca, Ramon Alvarez de Mon, the prodigy from Bondy intends to join Casa Blanca next summer and his entourage is ready to seal an agreement from the first days of 2024. For Paco Buyo, former Real goalkeeper and ex -consultant for Al-Jazeera (now beIN Sports), “ Mbappé will not extend with PSG and is even closer than six months ago “.
The post-Mbappé is expected
In any case, the Parisian club no longer has the absolute necessity of keeping its number 7 as in the spring of 2022. At the time, the Emir of Qatar had left Nasser al-Khelaïfi no choice six months from the World Cup in Doha and surrounding areas. As the journalist indicates Ben Jacobs, well informed on football news, the Parisian leaders are financially ready to let his jewel go free. They would obviously prefer to extend it to keep it or sell it immediately, but this outcome is very complicated.
Last summer, Mbappé, sidelined by his president and forced to extend or leave, agreed to give up his loyalty bonus of 100 million euros in order to reintegrate into Luis Enrique’s group. PSG saved this sum and could also turn the page on the biggest salary ever given to a footballer (outside Saudi Arabia). Mbappé pockets 72 million euros gross per year, or more than 50 million net.
