We announced it to you exclusively on January 7. After seven years at Paris Saint-Germain, Kylian Mbappé has decided to take a new direction in his career. At 25, the top scorer in the history of the capital club has finally said yes to Real Madrid. After dismissing the Merengues to everyone’s surprise in 2022, Mbappé will this time don the white tunic.
It now remains to be seen when the French international (75 caps, 46 goals) will officially announce his decision. Last Thursday, Real Madrid caused a worldwide stir by posting an enigmatic announcement on X, indicating a future signing. In the end, it was not a question of the arrival of the Frenchman, but of the announcement of a lucrative partnership with the computer company HP. A contract supposed to bring in €70 million per year to Casa Blanca.
An official decision only in June?
Announced as imminent, Mbappé’s decision is therefore still awaited. Last night, El Chiringuito gave a somewhat different version. The announcement made by Laure Boulleau had its small effect on the other side of the Pyrenees and the Spanish show bounced back by affirming that the official announcement for Mbappé will not take place until June, that is to say well after the end of the Ligue 1 season.
A timing that may be surprising given the latest information circulating on this subject. It should be remembered, however, that the most important thing for the parties involved is to know the player’s decision as soon as possible, but it does not need to be official. The fact remains that by remaining silent, Mbappé knows that he is exposing himself to the pressing desire of the media to know his choice. Unless he asked Real Madrid to wait until the end of the season so as not to disrupt that of PSG? The vagueness remains.
