Despite the volte-face of Kylian Mbapp, who finally extended with Paris Saint-Germain last summer, Real Madrid have maintained contact with the 2018 world champion. The White House is ready to take action, but it won’t be this winter.
Mbapp has not forgotten his childhood dream.
After the volte-face of Kylian Mbapp (24), who finally decided to extend the adventure with Paris Saint-Germain until 2024 last summer, with an optional additional year that only he can activate, the Real Madrid leaked a message: The train only goes once.
Kyk’s has already missed it twice. In 2017, when he left Monaco, and therefore in May 2022. And according to The Athletic, this famous train would have finally remained in the station, because contact has never been broken between the Merengues and the clan of Parisian striker!
Mbapp is still sending signs
Officially, Real has no longer contacted Mbapp since his about-face. But unofficially, the reigning European champions have kept open more discreet channels of communication with the player and his entourage and, since the 2022 World Cup, there is movement, announces The Athletic on Wednesday. The entourage of the top scorer in Ligue 1 (13 goals) has also refused to comment, but our colleagues maintain that the White House is ready to take action.
And for good reason: Mbapp continues to send signs, as last October when he leaked in the press desires to leave in January, because he was unhappy with recruitment and his too central position under Christophe Galtier. According to our colleagues, he did not hesitate to complain to Luis Campos, considering himself wrong vis–vis the promises made by its management at the time of its extension. It remains to be seen when the Merengues will take action.
No departure this winter… or this summer?
It won’t be in January, warns The Athletic, and maybe not even next summer. Real and its president Florentino Prez, undoubtedly traumatized by the pirouette of last summer, are cautious. But on the side of Paris, we are aware that the star of Bondy has not forgotten his Madrid dream. The only club that can get him out of here is Real Madridconfirmed a Parisian source The Athletic, while asking to remain anonymous.
Nothing is impossible in football, she continued. But we could ask for 400 million euros, or even not put a price. A calculation that is valid for this winter, a little less for this summer and even less for next winter. And in June 2024, Mbapp will be (again) free to commit wherever he wishes. If PSG does not meet the expectations of the Blue before this chance, Real will have free rein to realize its dream. And that of the player.
