Mbappé looks for the fire exit of PSG

Kylian Mbappé lit the alarms among a certain sector of Real Madrid declaring after PSG’s match with Lorient that “there are new elements and new parameters in my final decision”, to finish by assuring that “of course it is not ruled out that I renew”. The literalness of Mbappé’s statements made you think they might be backing down on their resolvedemonstrated during these years, to sign for Madrid.

As well, there is not a single reason to be alarmed. The roadmap has not changed one iota and the only thing that happens is that the Parisian crack he wants to leave PSG in June through the front door. The Champions League tie with Madrid caused a climatic change in its relationship with the stands of the Parque de los Príncipes. Let’s not forget that in summer the ultras booed him, knowing that Kylian had done everything possible to go to Madrid before the closing of the market (that’s why Madrid put 200 million on the table). Meanwhile, those same ultras applauded Messi enthroning him as the new football hero of PSG.

But time has been putting everyone in their place. Mbappé has shown a commitment and professionalism reflected in his impressive numbers so far this season (28 goals and 20 assists), while Messi has barely had a leading role in Ligue 1 (only three goals) and failed with a crash against Madrid in the Champions League (zero goals and a missed penalty). Neymar has also finished with the patience of the Parisian fanswho boos and insults him every time he touches the ball.

The opposite of Mbappé, cheered at every action in a last ditch attempt to convince him to stay. They arrive late, as confirmed by AS, but Kylian wants to end the season with the best possible image. In Paris they have yet to receive Marseille (April 17), Lens (April 23), Troyes (May 8) and Metz (May 21). That day Ligue 1 will end, PSG will celebrate the title with its fans and then it is when Mbappé is expected to make public his great decision, which only has one course: the Bernabéu.

Pochettino’s attitude doesn’t help PSG either, that yesterday he ignored the crack again by putting him in a batch of great players, without putting him in the true ranking in which the whole world of football now sees him: he is the new number one and his plethoric performances, both with France and with the PSG, confirm it. The one who does add to help Kylian come to Madrid is his friend Benzemawhich on the cover of The Team yesterday gave an almost definitive clue by stating that “with Mbappé here, Madrid would score twice as many goals… or triple!”.

In the club they value whatAnd if Kylian was really going to renew with PSG, Karim, who has a direct relationship with Mbappé, would never have given that interview with statements in that tone. Madrid, meanwhile, is planning its ‘galactic’ presentation this summer at the new Bernabéu, which promises to surpass even Cristiano’s spectacular in 2009. Madrid will do everything to make Kylian feel valued as he deserves. Just what has not happened to him at PSG until he facilitated his departure without leaving them a single euro in the box.
