Mbappé, renewal in neutral

The renewal of Kylian Mbappé is, right now, at the most critical moment since the forward signed for PSG back in 2017. The situation is identical to that of August, with the difference that time is now running against the Parisian team , which has not managed to convince the player or with a galactic project and has a month to try to change a situation that, in view of the events, invites a very pessimistic scenario. As AS has learned, there has been no progress in the negotiations for the renewal of Mbappé. PSG has been optimistic since August and tried to make him the highest paid in the squad, but the player’s decision is not an economic issue and little by little he is getting closer to Madrid.

In October, Mbappé confirmed in two interviews with RMC Sport and The team that he had asked PSG to leave in the summer to leave money in the club’s coffers and to find a substitute for guarantees, but the club flatly refused to do so. Not even the arrival of Messi in Paris could make the player change his mind, determined at that time to sign for Real Madrid without wanting to enter a dispute with PSG. The scenario facing PSG right now is more than pessimistic. First, because Al Khelaïfi and Leonardo were convinced that Mbappé was going to renew if they gave him a guarantee project to aspire to the Champions League. And, second, because the end of the year is approaching, that is, the date on which Bondy’s talent will become a free player to negotiate with the team he wants regardless of the decision of the club that has him under contract.

Despite the words of her mother, Fayza Lamari, in The Parisian a month ago, confirming progress in the negotiations with Leonardo (who has abandoned the talks to subordinate everything to Al Khelaïfi’s letter), right now the situation is the same as in August. If PSG does not manage to convince Mbappé in the next month, something more than likely, since the player has rejected all the offers that the club has put on the table since 2017, the forward will leave in June with absolute security. Of course, with total professionalism, since he wants to win the Champions League at all costs with PSG, with whom he has not entered any dispute and with which he has shown an extraordinary performance to date so far this season. We are about to enter December and, with each day that passes, Mbappé is further from being in Paris.
