Negative comments on the probable arrival of Kylian Mbappé at Real Madrid next summer are increasingly numerous in Spain. Particularly among certain media.
In just over three months, Kylian Mbappé’s seventh season at Paris Saint-Germain will end. The French striker did not wish to activate the third optional year which appeared in his contract, he will therefore find himself free on the evening of the thirty-fourth day of Ligue 1, or after the final of the Champions League if Paris were to dispute it. While the rumor insistently announces it on the side of Real Madrid, the Bondynois is not necessarily expected with open arms by the Spanish media.
Kylian Mbappé’s two refusals to sign for Real in 2017 and 2022 are still on everyone’s minds on the other side of the Pyrenees and some still have a grudge against the Frenchman. And since Real Madrid have recovered perfectly from the departure of Karim Benzema last year, currently occupying first place in the La Liga standings with five points ahead of their first pursuer, the press believes that the arrival of Kylian Mbappé is no longer as important as it might have been a year or two earlier.
Mea culpa requested
Journalist and outspoken supporter of Real Madrid, Tomas Roncero spoke about the 2018 world champion on the air of the Cadena SER. For him, the recruitment of the Parisian at the end of the season is “not not so obvious anymore “. And the observer confirms that he still has not digested Kylian Mbappé’s change of heart almost two years ago. “ He should admit that he was wrong in refusing to come. The debt he owes to Real Madrid is almost impossible to pay. He must own his mistake. »
Vinicius Junior’s current performances are not helping Kylian Mbappé either. The Brazilian continues his high-flying performances and offered himself another one this weekend, during Real Madrid’s great success against Girona (4-0), with a goal and two assists to boot. With Jude Bellingham in great shape (even if he injured an ankle and will miss at least two weeks of competition), the place allocated to Kylian Mbappé is therefore reduced compared to what it could have been. be a few months ago. But with President Florentino Perez wishing to rebuild a new “galactic” era, the Frenchman – if he comes to Madrid – will have the opportunity to show what he is capable of.
