While the future of Kylian Mbappé has been on everyone’s lips for several days, the president of Paris Saint-Germain, Nasser al-Khelaïfi, made a major media tour this Tuesday evening. Guest on the airwaves of RMC Sportbut also among our colleagues from The Team, the Qatari leader returned to the current information, namely the extension or departure of his star striker, Kylian Mbappé, at a time when his contract will end in six months. As we revealed to you exclusively on Sunday evening, the entourage of the international of the Blues has reached an agreement with Real Madrid on the outlines of a pre-contract and Kylian Mbappé will therefore wear the colors of the Madrid club in the coming years. But as long as the officialization has not fallen, Nasser al-Khelaïfi gives himself the right to believe in it and even gave a little more detail on the latest discussions between PSG and Mbappé’s entourage.
“He made it very clear, he has an agreement with me. We have a great relationship, he’s the best player in the world. I’m not going to hide that I want to keep it. I am confident, because the best place for him is Paris, as a French player, as captain of the national team, vice-captain of PSG, having been there for seven years. He has the ambition to do great things with Paris. We have everything you need: a fantastic coach who adores him and whom he adores, the best training center in the world, a great team. He has everything”explained the president of PSG in the columns of our colleagues from The Teambefore repeating his remarks alongside Jérôme Rothen in the show Rothen ignites : “Kylian is a great man, a great player, but also a great person. As he said after the Champions Trophy, he has an agreement with me. I don’t want to talk about money and say how much the deal is worth. We have a ‘gentleman agreement’, our agreement is not a question of money. It’s between a player and the president of the club, the sporting director and the coach. It’s more than a signed agreement”.
Total confidence in his player
In any case, calm seems to reign among the Parisian management. Nasser al-Khelaïfi continues to be patient, relaxed and confident about the continuation of the conversations with the Parisian number 7: “Of course ! But we are calm. I trust him, 200%. He’s a good boy. He gave me his word and he is a man of his word. I believe in him. I can not tell you. I can only say that I’m not stressed. Financially and with Kylian. I have a plan with Kylian. I don’t want to go into details, but I saw that he talked about it. I protect my family. I’m not going to let anyone destabilize Kylian or my team. My message is very clear. He’s part of the family and I’m going to protect this family.”then continued the president of the capital club.
The objective remains the same for the sports management of PSG. Keep Kylian Mbappé and ensure his long-term presence in the project led by Luis Enrique and Luis Campos: “I want him to stay, that’s for sure. He has the best training center in the world, the best coach, every year he plays in the Champions League and at least in 8th grade. We played the quarters, the semis, the final. The French championship is difficult. Next year with the new format, we will play more competitive matches.explained NAK in his interview with The Teambefore repeating on RMC to calm the media during the rest of the season on the Kylian file: “really I ask everyone to leave Kylian aloneimplored the president of PSG.
