Former journalist for the L’Equipe channel, Gilles Favard, spoke about the future of Kylian Mbappé, at the end of his contract on June 30 with PSG.
Where will Kylian Mbappé play next season? The question has been raised since last summer, following the refusal of the kid from Bondy to extend his lease for an additional season with Paris Saint-Germain. From then on, the captain of the Blues will be free from any contract on June 30, 2024 – if he does not return by then – and will therefore have the possibility of negotiating with the club of his choice from January 1 within the framework of a free transfer next summer.
“Mbappé costs around €250 million per year”
Yes, but there are few clubs capable of affording the star of the France team. “Kylian Mbappé costs his employer around €250 million per year”, advances Gilles Favard, who takes into account the transfer fee, the player’s salary and the various bonuses. An amount that even Real Madrid, which still dreams of one day affording the former Monegasque, cannot afford to pay, according to him.
“There are only two clubs that can afford his services”
“There are therefore only two clubs that can afford his services, Manchester City and PSG”said the former journalist for the L’Equipe channel, and added: “Real Madrid has a billion turnovers. He can’t invest a quarter in a single player. Especially since the others, when they know how much Mbappé earns, will want a raise. »
