A new era is about to begin at Paris Saint-Germain. After seven years of good and loyal service, Kylian Mbappé, top scorer in the history of the Parisian club (243 goals in 290 matches) has decided to leave the Rouge et Bleu at the end of the season. As we exclusively revealed to you on January 7, the 2018 world champion has given his agreement to join Real Madrid, a long-time favorite to welcome the French international (75 caps, 46 goals). With this in mind and if the media around the world followed suit, this Thursday, by relaying the information according to which the former Monegasque had finally informed Nasser Al-Khelaïfi that he was going to leave the Ile-de-France ship, we are able to tell you that the main person concerned had made his decision well before this month of February, also warning his private circle of this strong choice.
Questioned at a press conference before moving onto the FC Nantes pitch for the 22nd day of Ligue 1, Luis Enrique, who is awaiting official communication from the various parties, nevertheless refused to say more. “I have no information to give you. Until the parties involved weigh in, I will not comment. I’m the coach. I will speak when the parties speak. We will continue to work. The team is above everyone else, that’s our message. The club is above all individuality”, launched the former coach of La Roja. However, as we write these lines, there is no longer a shadow of doubt and the reigning French champions are already preparing a grandiose outing for their protégé. The outcome of a long series where Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of the Parisian team, will have long hoped for another outcome.
Florentino Pérez informed certain players
Indeed, last September, the boss of the club in the French capital still had the hope of extending his number 7, he who had found the right words a few months earlier to convince Mbappé to extend his lease in the City of Lights. The reason is simple. As we revealed to you in our columns on August 13, the Parisian striker had opened the door to an extension. Enough to push the upper echelons of Ile-de-France to reintegrate him into the group, beyond the financial considerations linked to this file. What also brings certain optimism on the side of Nasser Al-Khelaïfi. Still according to our indiscretions, Nasser Al-Khelaïfi finally suspected the departure of his star during the month of January. Therefore, and if several sources have mentioned the fact that the Parisian president had already come to terms with the idea of losing part of his investment a few years ago, we can tell you that his first reaction in private was very negative. .
Most certainly frustrated by such a failure, the leader of the Rouge et Bleu has since made up his mind, what’s more in the face of the firmness of his player, sure of his choice. And for good reason, unlike the scenario experienced in 2022, the 1m78 right-hander will not change his mind this time. An unfortunate outcome for PSG but so much hoped for by Real Madrid. Furious at the idea of seeing the French star arrive in La Liga and play for the Santiago Bernabéu, the Spanish press did not fail to celebrate this news. Note, in this regard, that the tricolor jewel could wear number 10 for the Merengues. If the Madrid club already had this intention two years ago, this possibility is still relevant, although the management of the Spanish club has not yet decided definitively on this point.
For his part and still according to our information, Florentino Pérez has already informed certain Madrid players of the arrival of the Bondynois. The latter also warned his teammates of his departure on the eve of the trip to Nantes in a relatively short but concise speech. Present at the PSG Campus in Poissy, the entire Parisian group, not necessarily surprised by this announcement, also welcomed the final decision of the current top scorer in Ligue 1. From now on and to definitively seal the Mbappé case, a joint official communication from the player and the club is expected…
