The “third-hand transfer drama” involving Kylian Mbappe, Paris Saint-Germain, and Real Madrid appears to have ended, and everything is now clear.
The 24-year-old striker was recently removed from the list of PSG players scheduled to participate in France’s representative tour of Asia, specifically Japan, today.PSG’s leadership has sent a very clear message about Mbappe’s future.
According to Fichajes, a lot of important information has gradually come to light in the last few hours.According to the leading prestigious news site on the TTCN, the 2018 World Cup champion has officially reached an agreement with Los Blancos about playing at the Bernabeu after parting ways with Les Parisiens.
This is why Nasser Al Khelaifi is furious, and he has decided to bring Mbappe to the negotiating table with any interested club.
Previously, this “hand 3 drama” had far too many complications.Threats, betrayals, and the players and team making insinuations against each other are typical words used by the media to describe the situation at the Park of the Princes from the beginning of the summer of 2023 until now.
PSG will no longer demand the correct amount of 200 million euros for this deal, according to The Athletic, because they know they are weak and can no longer be as tough as they were at the start of the summer.However, this newspaper insists that the figure will not be less than 100 million euros.
This situation creates an opportunity for all teams, not just Real Madrid, to own the French striker.The Athletic also mentioned that this could be PSG’s best move because Mbappe’s contract is approaching a “public auction” and the official fee to take him out of Paris is still unknown.
Thus, PSG has closed the price of Kylian Mbappe, which is “unbelievably low” but will also be a heavenly number, bringing the French striker to register in the transfer history of European and global football.
Kylian Mbappe is for sale, which will alert the world’s top clubs. The France international has one year left on his contract with Paris Saint-Germain and has no plans to extend it.
PSG are unimpressed, and president Nasser El-Khelaifi stated, “We don’t want to lose the best player in the world for free.” That is not something we can do. This is a club in France.
“He declared that he would never leave for free. It’s not my fault if he changes his mind today. We clearly do not want to lose the best player in the world for free.”
As a result, the French club has put the 24-year-old on the market after leaving him out of their pre-season tour of Japan and South Korea. PSG believe Mbappe has already agreed to terms with Real Madrid for next summer, but they want to get money for the forward before that happens.
Many clubs, including Premier League clubs Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool, will be interested in signing Mbappe this summer.Can any of them, however, afford him?And, if Mbappe is due to report to the Santiago Bernabeu in 2024, would he want to leave even for a year?
Interested clubs have been told how much they would have to spend to sign him this summer.
PSG is seeking a fee of around £160 million to sell Mbappe this summer, which is astronomical for a player with only one year left on his contract. Then there’s his pay.
Mbappe is said to earn around £2 million per week in Paris and would demand a signing bonus similar to the one he is said to have lined up at Real Madrid. With a weekly wage of £2 million and a transfer fee of £160 million, Arsenal and any other clubs interested in signing him this summer would have to spend at least £260 million in one year, and given his desire to join Real Madrid, it may only be for one season!
