Mbappé tightens the rope

The relationship between Kylian Mbappé (22 years old) and the PSG is going through a critical moment. The latest public statements from both parties reveal the tension that exists in the face of the player's refusal to renew. The French giant does not seem to accept that his star's decision is to go to Real Madrid this summer or the one that comes (in which the contract ends) and, after seeing how he rejected up to three millionaire offers to continue, he has decided to change his plan and put pressure on him in front of the media to get him to stay, at least, until 2023, after the World Cup in Qatar. Mbappé has received the message, but this has only made him a little further away from what has been his home for five years.

The forward showed his dissatisfaction with the Parisian leadership in his last press conference with France after being accused by Al Khelaïfi, president of the entity, of having requested signings from PSG to renew. “I want to make it clear that I have never asked a player or Leonardo (sports director) or anyone from the club. I am a soccer player and I have to be content with what I do on the field ”, he explained forcefully. Later, when asked about his future, he left another meaningful sentence. “I am here to represent the French team. PSG, with all due respect to this club of which I am an employee, does not interest me at the moment”, He affirmed, again being reluctant to talk about his renewal and speaking of himself as an“ employee ”of his club.

The reality is that Mbappé has not liked Al Khelaïfi's comments in recent weeks, starting with the ones you did in L’Equipe in which he assured that Kylian would “never” leave PSG. “I will be clear. Kylian Mbappé will continue in Paris, we will never sell him and he will never go free”, He sentenced. The footballer, who at no time has thought to come into conflict with his team, understood this message as a pressure maneuver for both him and Real Madrid. Of course, his response has been exemplary, since not only has he not been intimidated, but he has maintained his speech, leaving his continuity in the air. “I am in a place that I like, but is it the best where I can be?”, He wondered in France Football. In addition, he added: “I will not make a move in the form of betrayal”, Making it clear that he will not reveal himself to his club.

A new chapter has recently been opened. The President of the French Federation, Nöel Le Graet, has assured that “it will be difficult” to see Mbappé at the Olympic Games, a competition that the forward dreams of. The problem is that PSG, like the rest of the Ligue 1 teams, has refused to give up any player for the Olympics. A new point of disunity between club and player.

Cristiano, in the bedroom

While playing the continuity of one of your stars, PSG is already working on next season and on a plan B in case he ends up leaving. Is about Christian Ronaldo, with which the Parisian board of directors has already contacted to find out about their situation, as reported by this newspaper. The Portuguese has decided to leave Juventus and sees Paris as a good destination in which to continue his career, although his priority is Madrid.

In case Mbappé left, PSG believes that Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the few players in the world who could generate a media and sporting hit that lives up to expectations. Not only would he be, together with Neymar, the star of the next few years with whom to fight for his first Champions League, but he would also be one of the visible faces of the Qatar World Cup in 2022. A galactic signing both on and off the pitch .
