Real Madrid communicated on Saturday about the Kylian Mbappé soap opera, to be sure not to violate Fifa regulations.
Hey, the Kylian Mbappé soap opera has already resumed. While L’Equipe and RMC discussed the future of the Bondynois during the week, recalling that he would soon have to make a new decision about his future, Real Madrid broke the silence on Saturday afternoon by releasing a official press release.
“ Considering the information recently published by different media, in which there is speculation about alleged negotiations between the player Kylian Mbappé and our club, Real Madrid CF would like to declare that this information is completely false and that no negotiations of this type did not take place with a player who belongs to PSG“, writes Casa Blanca.
This media release from the Merengue may seem surprising, because we have experienced more turbulent periods regarding the future of Mbappé, with much more insistent rumors. But the explanation of this press release is provided by Le Parisien. Real Madrid thus wants to be sure not to fall foul of FIFA regulations, to avoid possible legal proceedings from PSG in the future.
Theoretically, a player under contract is not allowed to discuss with another club without the agreement of his own club. Unless, of course, his contract expires, in which case he can agree with another formation from January 1st. Officially, Real Madrid cannot therefore contact Mbappé before January 1, 2024, unless PSG authorizes it. But this is not the intention of the capital club, which still hopes to see its number 7 sign a new contract extension.
