Real Madrid has received with joy Mbappé's statements this Monday in which he publicly acknowledges that he asked to leave PSG in the summer. The white club understands that this movement of the French attacker reinforces the Madrid position during the end of August, when he made firm offers that were rejected for the Qatari ownership of the Parisian club. In Madrid, it is highly valued that Mbappé has finally taken the step of recognizing that his intention to leave, to reach Chamartín, was real.
A situation that in parallel explains how PSG begins to see its star much farther than close and that is why it begins to move seriously to find a tall replacement. That is why he has groped Haaland. More than a month has passed since the market was closed and the Parisian club's refusal to sell one of its stars to Real Madrid was certified and they still cannot find a way to defeat Kylian. He does not renew, he still does not think about doing it and in Paris they see him walk away without remission. This first relevant move by PSG for Haaland that revealed The Gazzetta a week ago he is intimately linked to the future of Mbappé. Given the suspicions that since January 1 there is nothing to do to avoid the signing of an official preliminary agreement between the 7 French and Madrid, have moved token for the Nordic. A complex signing that requires a lot of engineering, that's why the early movement.
And another star in which the French entity treads the callus of Real Madrid. In Chamartín their options have been negotiated with Haaland, who is in favor of being a Madridista before accepting any of the rest of the numerous options that he has on the table. But the opinion of his agent, Mino Raiola, and PSG currently maintains excellent relations with the well-known representative because it has had Verratti there for a long time and this summer he put a lot of his part into the signing of Donnarumma. PSG attacks by way of an almost irrefutable contract economically and with the seduction of having Messi and Neymar on the payroll. But such an operation cannot wait until the summer of 2022 and Raiola foresees such an auction that he has started asking for little less than the Moon.

As reported by AS, PSG and Real Madrid assume that there will be a conflict over Haaland. Because whatever happens through Mbappé, the Norwegian remains one of the two Madrid goals of a strategic nature for the future of the club. It is no less strategic for PSG. From the outside, he maintains a carefree face with respect to Mbappé, but the fact that they do not have them all with them is that polled Haaland and Lewandowski in late August.
The recent conflicts in the PSG dressing room attenuated with a first photo of La Paz do not hide the problem that the Parc des Princes club has with Mbappé. They didn't expect the French international to be a rock after seeing the display of power of his club still in summer but it is being. There are those statements from Mbappé himself. Working in Haaland (or another) as a substitute, almost ten months from now, is a sign that they see him leaving Paris sooner rather than later.
