The quest for Mbappé by Perez was one of the most publicized sagas in football. Twice, the club tried to bring the prolific attacker to Madrid, but without success: once when he was still a teenager in Monaco, then in 2022, when he decided to extend his contract with PSG. After years of waiting and speculation, Mbappé was finally presented at Santiago Bernabéu in the summer of 2024, marking the start of a new era for him and for the Merengues.
Mbappé revealed that despite these setbacks, the president of Real Madrid has never let this refusal become their relationship. On the contrary.
Kylian Mbappé confesses to his transfer from PSG to Real.
Addressing journalist Ana Pastor on the Sexta TV, Mbappé said: “It was not easy. But I have always had a good relationship with the president. Even when I stayed in Paris, he was there for me. He testified to affection for my family and me, and that is the difference. I respect it deeply. I always tell him that I will give everything for the club and for him so that the Madrid supporters are proud. »»
Since he has put on the famous white jersey, Mbappé has been on the wheel hats. The captain of the French team already scored 33 goals in his first season – a remarkable start for his “galactic” career. It has become an essential element of the offensive arsenal of Carlo Ancelotti, leading the charge while the club targets a historic triplet.
