After PSG’s victory against Toulouse (2-0), Wednesday evening during the Champions Trophy, Kylian Mbappé revealed having made an “agreement” with Nasser Al-Khelaïfi last summer. But what exactly is it about?

It’s official: there is a ” agreement “ between Kylian Mbappé and PSG. At the heart of the rumors at the start of the winter transfer window, the French striker himself announced it after the Parisians’ victory against Toulouse (2-0) during the Champions Trophy, Wednesday evening at the Parc des Princes. ” I have not made my decision yet. I haven’t made a choice yet.”he first responded regarding his future, a subject that has become all the more sensitive as he has been free to negotiate with the clubs that interest him since 1er January.

Before, therefore, slipping in this information: “I think that with the agreement reached with the president (Nasser Al-Khelaïfi) this summer, whatever my decision, we have succeeded in protecting all parties and preserving the serenity of the club for the challenges to come. It is the most important. The rest is secondary. (…) Today, no one talks about my situation inside the club. Not many people are interested. What people are interested in is that I can help the team win trophies like today. »

Mbappé-PSG, an agreement worth €80 million?

But since he claims to still not know what he will do next season, on what precise point did the 2018 world champion agree with the management of the Rouge et Bleu? According to RMC Sport, the discussions which concluded last August would in reality concern certain bonuses, provided for in the contract extension which he signed in 2022. These bonuses, of an amount which would be around 80 million euros, the former Monegasque nugget would have agreed not to touch them, in any case ” For now “.

As long as he hasn’t returned to Paris Saint-Germain? Without a doubt. If RMC Sport specifies that “no one has the precise content of the clauses”, we can actually assume that these sums will be paid to him if he agrees to extend the adventure in the capital, where he has been playing since 2017. Without that, he could give it up. It is a priori in this sense that the interest of PSG seems “protected”says Kylian Mbappé, because this economy would allow the French champions to better digest the departure of their crack player for free.
