The jackpot for Mbappé
According to the latest information revealed by El Chiringuito, Madrid is aware that having Mbappé in its squad will cost 35 million euros net. A challenge for the entity, because it far breaks the salary scale of the first team, where no player currently earns more than 11 million euros net. At the top of the pyramid are Alaba and Kroos. The first earns 10.8 million euros net per year and Kroos, 10.7.
the Bavarian hesitation
The German newspaper Bild gives us many revelations about Bayern Munich’s 2024 plan. Eight contracts expire in 2025, management must think about future extensions. For the moment, Bayern’s primary desire is to keep them all, but economic reality is pushing the German champions to imagine some sales. Already, Choupo-Moting could leave this winter to free up some payroll. Eintracht Frankfurt is interested in his services. In the Bavarian upper echelons, there is also hesitation about putting Joshua Kimmich on the transfer market. The German club wants to strengthen its “old players” like Thomas Müller, who should be offered a new contract extension. And there should soon be discussions over a new contract with Harry Kane’s representatives. Sven Ulreich should also stay a little longer than expected in the Rekordmeister jersey. Leroy Sané, who is in the sights of English clubs, will be invited to sign a new contract, just like Alphonso Davies, who would rather be in favor of a departure for Real Madrid.
Madrid in crisis
In Spain, what concerns the media the most is the future of Real Madrid. The Spanish club will have to deal with a serious injury disaster. As Marca explains, the entire spine of the Madrilenians has been through the infirmary since the start of the season. There are already 12 players who have been injured, and some of them have had numerous relapses. The latest to join the list are Camavinga and Vinícius. The Frenchman will be out for at least two months. The Brazilian could miss the entire end of the 2023 calendar year. Obviously, the newspaper, A.S. fears the worst. Without its key players, Casa Blanca has diminished its chances of winning a title, especially the championship. Madrid fans are currently praying for the sooner return of Jude Bellingham, their savior since he signed for Madrid.
