Nasser Al-Khelaïfi’s phone hasn’t stopped ringing for the past few days. Indeed, since PSG decided to dismiss Kylian Mbappé from the summer tour in Asia, the president has received many phone calls. They come from clubs which take the temperature concerning the tricolor striker. The latter has not yet been officially placed on the market by Paris, which is waiting for July 31 to know the final decision of the Frenchman.
Several clubs have tested the waters
But we imagine that this will be the case within a week since KM7 is sticking to its guns and refuses to exercise its option to extend until 2025. NAK and PSG have understood this well. They are already listening to offers for the 2018 world champion. Yesterday, they also accepted the proposal of 300 million euros made by Al-Hilal. After the failure of the Lionel Messi file, the Saudis are ready to do anything to afford Kylian Mbappé. Even to offer him a salary of 700 million euros per year.
But according to Report, the 24-year-old is not currently interested in a Saudi Pro League challenge. He would rather stay on the bench for a year than go. Paris, which does not rule out lending its player to avoid paying his XXL salary, is therefore exploring other solutions in Europe. Tottenham, Manchester United, Chelsea and Inter Milan have been cited as drop points. The Team added FC Barcelona. A club with which a telephone meeting between presidents would be planned.
Barça, MU and Chelsea out of the race
Which is not the truth if we rely on the information published by brand, Sport or Mundo Deportivo. All these media ensure that Barça has no intention of placing themselves to recruit KM7. Financially and administratively, this is impossible. Moreover, the player has always expressed his desire to join the rival club. The Blaugrana leaders believe that this information is a communication strategy on the part of PSG in order to make Real Madrid react.
Besides FC Barcelona, Manchester United is not interested in the idea of recruiting the Bondynois. THE Manchester Evening News explains that the Frenchman isn’t a target for the Red Devils at all this summer. This, even if the English are looking for an attacker. But they don’t want to splurge. Information confirmed by The Team which clarifies that Chelsea will not go further either. Good news for Real Madrid, which has the free way and which discusses indirectly with Paris.
