The potential arrival of Kylian Mbappé this summer is causing heated discussions within Real Madrid itself. The pros and cons are opposed.
While in France, the question is whether Kylian Mbappé will stay at Paris Saint-Germain or not, it is another discussion that is currently shaking Real Madrid. Presented as the number one target of the Merengue club next summer, the French striker does not seem to be unanimously accepted within the “Casa Blanca” itself. At least that’s what we think we know Football Transfers.
The media, whose head office is based in the Netherlands, reported this Thursday that among Merengue, supporters of the arrival of the international tricolor are opposed to other elements much less in favor of Mbappé. These are presented as “ experienced figures » from the management of the Madrid club. And the media cited one of its sources who confirmed that “ the most mature and wise people in Real » believe Napoli striker Victor Osimhen would be a better fit for the club.
Osimhen, best option?
These Madrid officials would thus be against the signing of Mbappé. They would estimate that the money that would be spent on the Frenchman’s arrival (salary, signing bonus and bonus) would far surpass anything Real Madrid has ever put on the table for a player and that it would be much wiser to use some of it to recruit Osimhen. Football Transfers even goes so far as to offer a graph showing the similarity in profile between the Napoli player and a certain Karim Benzema, who left Real last summer.
However, the fact remains that Victor Osimhen is in the sights of other clubs, and in particular Chelsea, to whom he would have given his agreement to come next summer. The fact also that Real boss Florentino Perez dreams more than ever of attracting Kylian Mbappé, even after the refusals in 2017 and 2022, cannot be dismissed and must be taken into account. Everything remains to be done in this issue which continues to ignite in Paris and Madrid.
