The situation is getting a little tense with the Mbappé. For those who may have spent a few weeks on another planet, the announcement of Kylian Mbappé’s departure from PSG (to move to Real Madrid) caused a media tsunami within the football world. At 25 years old and after seven years spent at Paris Saint-Germain, the Bondynois finally agreed to give in to the Merengues’ advances.
But this announced departure also shined the spotlight on his younger brother Ethan. Aged 17, the latter, who scored 5 goals and delivered 3 assists this season with the Ile-de-France U19s, finds himself in the same contractual situation as his brother. Free from any contract on July 1, will Ethan Mbappé join his big brother in Madrid? Hiring a member of the star recruit’s siblings is not a new process in the world of football.
The Mbappé asked Real Madrid for a favor
And for Ethan, the question deserved to be asked since at the beginning of the month, the Spanish media assured that PSG had stopped all negotiations concerning an extension, upset by the departure of Kylian. Two weeks later, however, the main person concerned made it known that he had no intention of packing up. “no, I’m a Titi, I’m staying at PSG!”. But this Tuesday, El Chiringuito tells us that a new twist has occurred in this matter.
After confirming Kylian’s future at Real Madrid, the family asked Casa Blanca for a favor: recruiting Ethan. A request that the Merengues thought about and finally accepted. Due to Kylian’s somewhat agitated departure from PSG, did Mbappé want to prevent his younger brother from playing in a hostile environment next season? Such a scenario is largely possible, even if no confirmation of the Titi’s departure has yet reached the ears of the Rouge et Bleu.
