Whether Mbappe can become Real Madrid this summer, I am afraid there are still great variables!
Does Mbappe, whose contract expires this summer, have any hope of staying in Paris? A media war is taking place, and the scales are indeed changing.
After Paris Saint-Germain locked up The Ligue 1 title on Saturday, Mbappe's statement on the future was: "Nothing has changed at the moment, there is nothing to say. Paris director Leonardo stressed that it is possible for Mbappe to stay, "Real Madrid has been convinced that Mbappe will go since 3 years ago, they may be too sure, right? ”
The beginning of the whole news storm, from the "team newspaper" to Paris Saint-Germain full team series like scans, who will stay, who will go. The protagonist, of course, is Mbappe, and it is precisely when people are asking each other whether Mbappe is going to real Madrid or not that his 15-year-old brother leaked "heavenly opportunity" on social media: Mbappe's family is on vacation in Doha.
The French media broke the news that the Mbappe family's itinerary also included direct contact with Qatari investors in Paris. After the trip to Qatar, the Mbappe family will also go to Spain, communicate with Real Madrid again, and finally make a decision.
This is not the first time that the French media has revealed that Mbappe's whereabouts may have turned around. As early as the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, the Team Newspaper had detonated this news. At that time, the Madrid media also responded immediately, but the tone was very affirmative, believing that Real Madrid president Florentino was not worried about Mbappe's change of heart at all. In other words, Real Madrid and Mbappe have already made an agreement.
In terms of breaking news, it is always the French media that first reveals the wind, indicating that Paris is constantly launching an offensive against Mbappe. Although no one is sure now, a slight reversal in the balance is visible, because even the French media believed that whether Mbappe renewed his contract would be related to whether Paris eliminated Real Madrid, but the Paris Champions League exit did not seem to affect him to continue to leave a glimmer of hope for the Qatari.
The Spanish media, as last time, responded to the News from the French side, but this time the tone of the response was softer than the one in progress in the Champions League. Neither "Maca" nor "As" confirmed that Mbappe had an unchangeable agreement with Real Madrid, but confirmed that Mbappe's family would come to Madrid next, and confirmed the News of france: Mbappe and Real Madrid had differences over portrait rights.
Florentino has always had a principle for building the Galactic Battleship: the wool comes out of the sheep, and the star is part of the overall image of the club, so the player needs to give 50% of the portrait rights to the club and seriously participate in the club's collective business activities. Whether it was for Raul, Figo, Ronaldo, Beckham or Kaka in the past, Florentino has adhered to this principle, and only C Ronaldo has been slightly loosened when he renewed his contract, but the principle has always remained the same.
Mbappe has just rebelled against the French Football Association in this matter, refusing to participate in some sponsored activities - such as carbonated drinks, Mbappe believes that professional players should not touch the drink, why should they speak for it?
Mbappe did not want to transfer some of his portrait rights anymore, wanted to decide which group commercial activities he would participate in, and wanted to get a share from the sale of jerseys.
Paris happens to be generous with their players in this regard, and Mbappe has previously refused to participate in some of the Parisian commercial activities. Now Paris is tempted to keep 100% of Kylian Mbappe's portrait rights, while also definitely offering an annual salary that overrides Real Madrid. There are many claims on the Internet about the amount of annual salary offered by Paris, such as the 2+1 year contract with an annual salary of 50 million euros + 100 million signing fees. However, the Team Newspaper did not provide accurate figures or numerical ranges, which should be an important secret now.
In recent years, Paris has not always been full-fledged in the transfer market, and even when Messi signed last year, there are also slimming plans, because Qataris also need to pay attention not to cause big trouble on the issue of financial fairness. But with UEFA changing the rules of fiscal fairness, the situation in Paris has become much more favorable. The Team Newspaper said that the new policy can allow Paris to maintain the "MNM" combination without pressure for the next 2 years. "Macca" revealed that the Paris management also promised Mbappe to reorganize the athletic department and strive to win the Champions League, and may even invite Campos, a Portuguese whom Mbappe trusted very much during his time in Monaco, as technical director.
Next, Mbappe's family trip to Madrid will be crucial. This series is destined to last until May.
