Kylian Mbappé himself spilled the beans on Wednesday evening on CNN Sports. “My next club will soon be official, it’s a matter of days. I’m very excited about it, I’m happy. We just have to wait a few days.” But where will the man go at the end of his contract with PSG? The whole world holds its breath in the face of this endless suspense. A false suspense in reality. If you are an avid reader of French Football Weekly, you already know this since January 7, the date of our revelations. The striker will join Real Madrid.
There were still some issues to resolve. How, where and when to announce your arrival in the Spanish capital? The subject is on everyone’s lips in Madrid management. This involves having a Santiago Bernabéu stadium available (Taylor Swift notably gave two concerts there on May 29 and 30), finding a slot that does not overlap with the French team’s preparation camp, and not to commit anything reprehensible against PSG, where the player’s contract officially ends on June 30.
Everything is coming together in Madrid
All indicators were pointing towards the first week of June, which confirms Marca this day. The date of Kylian Mbappé’s presentation should take place on June 6, the day after the Blues’ first friendly match in Metz against Luxembourg. According to the French team’s program for that day, a press conference is scheduled for 4 p.m. with, a priori, two players, before training at 5:30 p.m. The captain of the Tricolores would take the plane for an express return trip to the Spanish capital while he was presented with great fanfare to the public.
Two days ago, Didier Deschamps for his part already warned that he would adapt to the situation. “It’s not up to me. They will decide when it is time to make it official. As far as possible, I will make sure to adapt for the collective, for the France team. We therefore arrive at the end of a very long series. We can even talk about years between the first rumors in 2017 and the false start of the Parisian star in the summer of 2022. This time, Real Madrid will win their case.
