The soap opera between Mbappé and Real Madrid wrote another chapter this afternoon (the umpteenth in an endless novel) with the publication by the French newspaper ‘Le Parisien’ of information in which it was stated that the striker had already chosen to play. at Real Madrid next summer, although the same media does not confirm the agreement with the white team.
According to ‘Le Parisien, the player’s idea is to try to finish the season with PSG in the best possible way in Paris and what better than with the Champions League title and then sign for the whites.
Real Madrid is silent and is not going to go in (at least for now) to deny the news. Sources from the white club point out that “we have already experienced this (the announcement of the agreement) many times and in the end it has not materialized into anything.”
In its information ‘Le Parisien’ explains that pessimism has set in at PSG because the renewal negotiations with the player are not progressing as they should for the interests of the French club. “The biggest star in French football will join the biggest club in the world next season. Meanwhile, optimism reigns in Madrid while behind the scenes the biggest locker room contract for the captain of Les Bleus is being negotiated,” says the French newspaper.
‘The battle is lost,’ writes ‘Le Parisien’, alluding to the few signs that Kylian Mbappé has given in recent weeks regarding a possible renewal, including the letter he sent to PSG in June in which he formally declined to execute a renewal clause until 2025.
Madrid sources point out that Mbappé is no longer a priority or a strategic signing for the white club, which considers that it has the front line covered with the young Endrick (he will surely arrive next summer) and the more than probable execution of the purchase clause of Joselu to Espanyol for 1.5 million.
Certainly, in Madrid they point out that if Mbappé becomes available they could study his signing again but not at the cost of completely unbalancing the salary cost of the squad. In Madrid they no longer trust Mbappé at all and even less in his surroundings and consider that this is a new maneuver by Mbappé’s family to end up improving his salary and renewal conditions at PSG, already astronomical.
The latest surveys published in the Madrid media reflect that Madrid fans have not forgiven Mbappé for not wanting to come to the Bernabéu in the summer of 2022 when the agreement was taken for granted and right now they do not want to see him in white. Without a doubt, the soap opera will have many more chapters.
