Put up against the wall by PSG, Kylian Mbappé could change air this summer. Real Madrid are the big favourites, but that’s new, the English newspaper The Independent reveals that Arsenal also makes the French striker dream.
Extend at PSG or leave this summer, the situation of Kylian Mbappé is clear in the eyes of the Parisian club, which has made it known through the voice of its president that it still gives its star striker a few weeks to decide on his future. But this pressure from Nasser Al-Khelaïfi offers absolutely no guarantee for the rest of the summer. One way or the other, surprises can occur and the example of last year, when Mbappé extended with PSG when everything indicated his signing at Real Madrid, remains in all memories.
Mbappé fan of Arteta’s Arsenal
What give hope to clubs who dream of achieving the big blow. This has been the case at Arsenal since the thunderous revelations of the rather serious English newspaper The Independent. The media debunks the rumor that Liverpool is the English club in which Kylian Mbappé dreams of signing if he had to cross the Channel. Indeed, it is rather Arsenal who have the favors of the French international. The Independent claims that the project led by the London club inspires the PSG striker a lot, who admires the long-term construction with Mikel Arteta and his ability to invest as well, since the Gunners have already bought Kaï Havertz, and could recruit Declan Rice in the next few days. That progression nearly translated into the Premier League title this season, but Manchester City’s final sprint left everyone on the fence.

Nevertheless, the return to the Champions League is assured and Arsenal have significant financial means to achieve this huge blow. Especially since Kylian Mbappé would, according to the English newspaper, be captivated by the idea of restoring the title of champion to the Londoners, who have been chasing after them for simply 20 years. A new preference therefore, which is also explained by the failure of Liverpool to get involved in the fight for the first places last season. Nevertheless, the obstacles are still considered to be very numerous, and The Independent ensures that no serious contact has been established between the two parties.
PSG, Real Madrid, Arsenal, in that order?
Without counting the financial aspect and especially the Parisian salary of Mbappé which is not up to the standards of the Premier League, yet very high, his career preference is always to continue at PSG, and if not to join Real Madrid. But if ever Paris decided to open the sale of its prodigy to everyone, a window of opportunity would inevitably open for English clubs. And obviously, in this little game, Arsenal would have some arguments to put forward with its project masterfully led by Mikel Arteta, a coach sometimes announced in the sights of PSG, especially last spring.
