Kylian Mbappé has broken his silence. In an interview with RMC Sport that comes out in its entirety tomorrow, the French international has revealed the details of his frustrated departure to Real Madrid. He assures that he told PSG that he wanted to leave at the end of July and that he does not want to judge that the offer of the white team arrived at the end of August.
“I asked to leave, because from the moment I did not want to renew, I told the club that I wanted to leave. I wanted the club to have a significant compensation for my sale so that I could sign a quality replacement. PSG is a club that has given me a lot, I've always been happy the four years I've been here and I still am. I announced it well in advance that the club could turn it around. I wanted everything to go well to reach an agreement. I told them, if you don't want me to go, I'll stay “, assured Rothen in the interview with RMC Sport.
In addition, the PSG striker flatly states that he asked for his departure in July and not at the end of August as was said in the press: “People said that I rejected six or seven renewal offers. That I did not want to talk to Leonardo anymore and that is not true. It is not for me to judge, my position was clear. I said it quite early. I wanted to leave at the end of July and That's what I said. I did not appreciate the fact that they said to me, “yes, he wants to go” at the end of August. Is a lie. I said at the end of July that I wanted to go. “
