Announced at Real Madrid at the end of the season, Kylian Mbappé spent two days in Barcelona with Achraf Hakimi and Arnau Tenas.
The timing is of course important. While the French and Spanish media have been announcing his signing for Real Madrid at the end of the season for a week as a given, Kylian Mbappé was seen in… Barcelona. The PSG striker actually took advantage of two days of rest to go to Catalonia, in the company of Achraf Hakimi and Arnau Tenas.
Did he take advantage of this short break on the Mediterranean coast to see the leaders of Barça? According to Sport, it was above all to unwind and party that the 2018 world champion went to Spain. And his stay ended this Wednesday, since he and his two teammates are expected in Paris for the resumption of training.
A new bluff from Mbappé?
Despite everything, it’s hard not to imagine another bluff on the part of “Kyk’s”, whose entourage knows how to manipulate the press. In the podcast Caught Offsideinsider Ben Jacobs explained that the recent rumors about the existence of contacts between the French star and Manchester City were mainly intended to put pressure on the Merengues.
Nothing says, therefore, that this improvised trip to Barcelona, on the grounds of the great rival of the White House, was not a little calculated on the part of the French international. A Kylian Mbappé who, questioned about a possible agreement with Real Madrid while he was signing autographs to a few fans who came to meet him, did not wish to make any comment.
