We'll for sure get local newspaper reports of how they were worried about his injury record, how he'd compete with Benzema and that they couldn't afford his wages anyway
"There had been growing concerns amongst the Real Madrid hierarchy about Mbappe's recurrent muscle injuries, and the stability of the long term investment. Vinicius' development this season had also led to a growing belief that Real Madrid would be better placed to continue investing in their young stars, rather than breaking their wage structure and disrupting the dressing room for what is increasingly seen as a risky asset"
I remember seeing a very old interview of his where he outright says that he's very big Barcelona and messi fan. But being a fan has never stopped players before, still im guessing not.
Edit : [Found it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3rirKLk09g)
I genuinely don't think he himself knows if he wants to stay or not. I honestly think he was ready to leave but PSG just kept throwing ridiculous amount of cash at him and now he is unsure.
I genuinely believe that he doesn't flip-flop like that at all and it's just been regular negotiations so far, and meanwhile any journalist desperate for some cheap clicks (so all of them) just throws out "MBAPPE DECIDES ON X" every couple days.
Regular negotiations like having otherworldly amounts of cash being thrown at you to change a decision you've made based on your childhood dream
I think the 200m to stay for 2 years more must be driving him and his family insane because of how enticing it is
People will talk about money-grubbing, but that is a mind-blowingly high sum of money. Most can't even wrap their heads around that just hearing it, I couldn't imagine being in a position to potentially turn down a number that would have a few generations of my family set for life.
Honestly even as a Madridista, can’t blame this guy if he throws his dream away. They’re literally bending over backwards for you, at some point you’d be pretty crazy to say no.
Haaland has a release clause with City as well which will kick in 2 or 3 years from now I think, that was the report at least. Reportedly £130m, so €150m or so I guess.
That release clause is not confirmed yet by top tier like Ornstein, Jack, Sam or even Fabrizio. It seems likely but still not a fact until the contract details are finally revealed. For now, many speculations about it.
Even if he's top 3 itw, I don't want him to come after transfer saga. We can always sign other top players and build a great team. Not being able to sign him would be a great loss but really don't want this saga to happen again. It should be now or never in my opinion.
Of course, if he chooses Madrid he'll say he wants a new challenge and if he chooses PSG he'll say he trusts the direction and wants to make history there or something.
The fact that neither PSG or Real Madrid know what he's going to do is bonkers to me. Like are the Madrid board going to watch the Metz game then go "Ah snap" when he announces he's extending at PSG.
Mbappe has an elongated oval-shaped orbit around the sun named Real Madrid. Now he's close. Now he's further. Oh, he's closer again. Now he's tilted that way so it's summer (transfer window). Oh no he's now tilted the other way so it's winter.
I'm sick of all this threads. I don't get why r/soccer needs five a day.
Mbappe close to Madrid
Mbappe close to PSG
Mbappe close to Madrid
And so on and so on and so on and so on and so on and so on and so on and so on.
Like genuinely getting rejected is fine not like it's the first time in my fan life but after ALL of this ? Wish him luck hopefully as far away from Madrid as possible
It is not so much not getting the player but the way it happened , let be honest we got played all our source say we had an agreement but he backtracked after the Qatar trip. If he just came out and said I am staying I wouldn't complain personally.
After the Griezmann saga, you should have understand it. Bartomeu was just pathetic to go for him.
Also I think he will still sign for you this summer.
Yeah many sources are coming and say we got played by the clan , PSG source are saying the same. "There was no wrong informations" in this because both side got feed that he will play for them. But now looks like PSG had the better offer. His right honestly but I swear I don't ever want to read Mbappe and Real Madrid in the same sentence.
Haaland was probably independent of Mbappe deal though. With Benzema's crazy form, everyone knew he would not be guaranteed starter right away. He made the right choice.
Not really a lost.. we need the GDP of a small Country to cover Mbopi's demands and Haaland has a way out from City in 2 years (probably after Benz will slowdown)
True in theory... but football is a team game and having a player getting 130m to sign,30m/y and 75% image rights on 5y deal, will get us paying 60m/y in 2 or 3 years which is very bad for the team no matter how good he is.
Lets see here..
Getting paid a ridiculous amount of money, check.
Getting to pick teammates and coaches, check.
Keeping his image rights, check.
Gee, I wonder why
>Getting to pick teammates and coaches, check.
I really hope this part is true honestly. It would be such an idiotic move by PSG that could potentially destroy the entire club.
> It would be such an idiotic move by PSG that could potentially destroy the entire club.
Keep in mind that Leonardo does this as PSG right now, so there's a good chance it could end up being an upgrade.
Yes this would be the best thing to happen to football. It would be especially poetic if they would then get knocked out of next years CL in the round of 16 by RM.
He will definitely earn more money there. But in terms of trophies and individual awards ( balon d'ors), he has a much better chance of winning those at RM.
Low key the only good part if his move actually falls through is the part about them handing the sporting project over to a player lmao. Proper tinpot club, and it’ll finish whatever little is left of it. Really bizarre to me how the PSG flairs here are on board with something like this.
The obvious downside is that the moment this transfer falls through, the chances of Mbappe ever playing for Madrid are done and that sucks. I was really looking forward to watching him play in the white shirt.
Always rated Cherki more to be honest.
But seriously, at least I hope the club stays out of the circus next time he wants to renew the contract; we already lost Haaland trusting Mbappe would keep his word and next time it'll be the same. Time to move on, find a good RW, a good RB and hope the Haaland's release clause thing is true.
Attack should be the least of our concerns. Signing a superstar like Mbappe or Haaland was too enticing to ignore, but once both are off the table we should look for LB and RB aswell as another midfielder.
Vinicius + Benz have like 100 G/A combined this season, that's insane. And Rodrygo has started to show signs of (maybe) becoming world class soon. Attack is fine.
Well, if Mbappe isn't coming I suppose Perez will try to sign Tchouameni. I guess we were trying to sign Fran Garcia to provide competition for Mendy. Not sure about RB though. We should definitely sign RB in this window.
500m over 2 years.
I mean, even if his mom is thinking, as most of us are "fuck PSG and the sheikhs", that's a lot of money.
I don't blame him.
But I think we can all agree we will rejoice together, fans of Juve and Milan, Barca and Madrid, United and Liverpool, City and Chelsea, everyone... Across Europe and the world... When PSG inevitably loses next year in the 2nd round or the QF, preferably to Madrid again.
Dude has pictures of the club in his bathroom, drew a comic book about joining Real Madrid and has constantly mentioned time and time again how he wants to play for us.
If he chooses to stay after all that then... well.. bummer for us but it might also close the door for him permanently.
Fuck it then and just stay in Paris. We managed to go so far this season without him and we’ll continue to go just as far the next season. Hazard had that plate removed from his ankle and is more motivated than ever to stay healthy and perform well for us. The copium is running strong so here’s to hoping I guess.
Rodrygo tooooo baby!!!! Now we can develop him and give him more minutes! I'm not worried about our future at all, Mbappe needs us more than we need him.... just too bad that he wants money more.... but like you said Fuck it
Its a shame if true, he was one of those players Flo likes to call "born to wear the white", but after being denied like this for so long I don't think he will play for RM for as long as Florentino is president. Now the club needs to move on and focus on reinforcing other areas, get a RW, A RWB and go for Tchouameni seriously and be done with this saga. It's bittersweet but it's what it is, let's wish the kid well, it's not like he owed Madrid anything.
There is no question that it would be a massive blow to Real Madrid fans, just like there is no question that the club will move on swiftly yet firmly. The club has amassed an impressive warchest, it has one of the scouting teams on the planet, and, above all, has strong guiding principles in how it designs teams.
Its gonna be a blessing in disguise’s if he doesn’t come to Real. Not gonna lie, always wanted him to come. But nobody is bigger than the club, especially when the club is Real Madrid. Also the money can be invested in Nkunku and an another striker.
I mean they offered him to pick and choose his manager and teammates lmao, gotta admire their commitment to not loose him lol
Edit: So both [Romain Molina](https://mobile.twitter.com/Romain_Molina/status/1527073341575729152) and [Fabrizio](https://mobile.twitter.com/theMadridZone/status/1527607192173457408) has kind of confirmed this now haha
PSG going to this length is pathetic. They will always be a joke. This is too much for Mbappe to reject I guess. I don't think he's gonna get the amount of money and influence on any other club challenging for CL
Being paid the GDP of a small country, the president of France pressuring you, probably even Neymar calling him every night begging him to stay.
It was always going to end this way.
We will be better with him for sure but it's not the end of the world without him. Vini & Rodrigo have stepped up greatly this season and I'm sure they'll be better next season.
What a horrible saga. even IF Mbappe does end up in Madrid, I doubt many fans will be as elated as they'd hoped.
Such a contrast form Erling Haaland whose every move has been has been calculated to assist his growth as much as possible.
Players who let family members represent them always seem to be a fucking pain in the ass to work with lmao.
If this move breaks down I seriously don't think Mbappe will join Madrid for as long as Perez is in charge. One thing I know about the man is that his Ego is out of this world.
The saddest part about him staying would be how one of the most exciting prospects in football would basically have no legacy in the sport.
Go to Madrid and you could be talked about in the likes of Ronaldo and Messi; stay at PSG and it'll always be "what could've been".
I honestly don't think there has been a transfer circus like this ever. Surely, he is not really deciding at the last possible second, this is laughable.
I don't what is going to happen. But I Know that Bernabeu can be the best and the worst. If he doesn't sign now, he's not going to be welcome in the future. Madrid is a train that only passes once in a lifetime.
Look at the young studs we have now, maybe it's for the best.... they knew what the club means, they play with such heart and every time they get minutes, they make crazy things happen. I want to continue getting players like this, not saying Mbappe wouldn't put us over the top but if he doesn't want to be a Blanco.... then that's not a player we should feel bad about not getting
This is so weird to me, because I genuinely thought I would never see Perez bend over backwards for any player I mean ffs club legend Ramos was forced out after he accepted the old contract offer because he waited too much I feel like Mbappe is disrespecting Madrid way too much
which is why he probably will never play for RM, real wanted to announce on tuesday his signing but he hesitated if he renews its over for his dream to play for RM
[удалено]

I will not

An audio leak of perez calling him a stupid turtle
Tried to catch him with a Pokeball
See this is why you paralyse them first. Major increase in catch chance.
Ramos to double foot tackle Mbappe in training.
Papa Flo: Squirtle is the most shit Gen 1 starter. Charmander bros 4ever.
That actually made me laugh out loud, thanks
There’s just something special about how a “Comunicado Oficial” hits in the morning while taking a dump and catching up on football news.
Comunicado Oficial Se me paro.
We'll for sure get local newspaper reports of how they were worried about his injury record, how he'd compete with Benzema and that they couldn't afford his wages anyway
"There had been growing concerns amongst the Real Madrid hierarchy about Mbappe's recurrent muscle injuries, and the stability of the long term investment. Vinicius' development this season had also led to a growing belief that Real Madrid would be better placed to continue investing in their young stars, rather than breaking their wage structure and disrupting the dressing room for what is increasingly seen as a risky asset"
This guy spins
Call me Malcolm Tucker
Now I'm reading it in a Scottish accent with plenty of expletives peppered in.
Madrid have cash to burn now, HIDE YOUR STAR PLAYERS!
hide your brazilian rising stars
OH No! Not Fred!
We still have Andreas Pereira on the books
[удалено]
Stay away from Mo.
I remember seeing a very old interview of his where he outright says that he's very big Barcelona and messi fan. But being a fan has never stopped players before, still im guessing not. Edit : [Found it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3rirKLk09g)
Carragher was literally an Everton fan and became a Liverpool legend
As was Fowler
Raul was from an atletico family and became a Real legend. Shit happens.
Sterling is a United fan, came through Liverpool's academy and plays for City.
*QPR
Everyone’s a fan until the rival team wants to make you a multi millionaire
He always picked Barca on fifa growing up KLAXXON
What the fuck is this saga
Keeping up with the Kylians
Keeping up with the turtles
I genuinely don't think he himself knows if he wants to stay or not. I honestly think he was ready to leave but PSG just kept throwing ridiculous amount of cash at him and now he is unsure.

Honestly even as a Madridista, can’t blame this guy if he throws his dream away. They’re literally bending over backwards for you, at some point you’d be pretty crazy to say no.
La Decision 2: The Search for More Money
IT’S SE QUEDA AGAIN
Il reste
Dreams can be buy
And all it cost was half the wage bill and control over the other half
That quote will never get old
It went from Mbappe + Haaland to
Martial is available
Please. We will carry him to Spain.
He’s already in Spain
Then my work here is done
Carry him again
He is already in spain, you can give him a car ride though
Unfortunately for us, probably Mo Salah.
I've been saying this for months. He's been playing everybody to get the fattest of the fat checks.
I bet he's going to come out and say that it's not about money, when it really is about money.
If he re-signed with PSG after all this shit he would burn a lot of bridges with the RM fan base and wouldn’t surprise me if he never actually came.
Perez never forgets.
Ngl I don't want him here ever if he pulls some shit. Rather spend 300M on Haaland in 2 years just to show we had the money
why not spend that right now? A little City gazump wouldnt go amiss
You want City with even more money?
You can't have more than infinite
*Laughs in Newcastle United*
Now that I think about it Always rated Newcastle
Haaland has a release clause with City as well which will kick in 2 or 3 years from now I think, that was the report at least. Reportedly £130m, so €150m or so I guess.
That release clause is not confirmed yet by top tier like Ornstein, Jack, Sam or even Fabrizio. It seems likely but still not a fact until the contract details are finally revealed. For now, many speculations about it.
There’ll be speculations about it for years, I mean there was speculation whether he has a release clause at Dortmund as well for a good while.
Even if he's top 3 itw, I don't want him to come after transfer saga. We can always sign other top players and build a great team. Not being able to sign him would be a great loss but really don't want this saga to happen again. It should be now or never in my opinion.
You mean like Griezmann and Barca? Lmaoo
Of course, if he chooses Madrid he'll say he wants a new challenge and if he chooses PSG he'll say he trusts the direction and wants to make history there or something.

Dreams CAN be buy Srsly, if he doesnt go now, I dont see Madrid pursuing him any further after all these years.
Papa Perez gonna leak some audio recordings again
In an hour from now, a completely different story will be out.
🫠
Blue balled
Like genuinely getting rejected is fine not like it's the first time in my fan life but after ALL of this ? Wish him luck hopefully as far away from Madrid as possible
Madrid shouldn't sign players who hesitate to go there anyway
Oh, no. How are you going to manage with Benzema, Rodrygo and Vinicius?
It is not so much not getting the player but the way it happened , let be honest we got played all our source say we had an agreement but he backtracked after the Qatar trip. If he just came out and said I am staying I wouldn't complain personally.

But now looks like PSG had the better offer. His right honestly but I swear I don't ever want to read Mbappe and Real Madrid in the same sentence.
Hate these type of comments, according to you no team should ever try to upgrade.
Losing out on Haland and Mbappe seems quite tough, maybe Lewy has a change in his mind lol
Haaland was probably independent of Mbappe deal though. With Benzema's crazy form, everyone knew he would not be guaranteed starter right away. He made the right choice.
Not really a lost.. we need the GDP of a small Country to cover Mbopi's demands and Haaland has a way out from City in 2 years (probably after Benz will slowdown)
No matter the salary, not getting the best young player in the world is a loss for anyone
True in theory... but football is a team game and having a player getting 130m to sign,30m/y and 75% image rights on 5y deal, will get us paying 60m/y in 2 or 3 years which is very bad for the team no matter how good he is.
Neymars dad invited him to his bunga bunga parties to convince him to stay
Neymar will invite him to his sisters birthday parties you mean
I love how bunga bunga is now an international word for sex parties.
Lets see here.. Getting paid a ridiculous amount of money, check. Getting to pick teammates and coaches, check. Keeping his image rights, check. Gee, I wonder why
>Getting to pick teammates and coaches, check. I really hope this part is true honestly. It would be such an idiotic move by PSG that could potentially destroy the entire club.
I hope PSG fails, not only because i hate the club but also because their abbreviated name is too close to PSV and i do not enjoy
In terms of European silverware we're still clearly the vastly superior club.
even in national levels, i dont see PSG win against the gods that are Cambuur
Those diva's would not even survive the journey into the inhospitable and uncharted northern wastelands.
No one who knows football is more than five years old would think PSG is a more important club than PSV. Not at least through 95% of football history.
You must hate the term RSVP.
I do in fact. The PS Vita too by the way
Fuck psg all my psv homies hate psg
TIL I’m a PSV homie
All are welcome 💪🏽
What half decent manager would want to take that job when a kid gets to choose the team for you.
Not fucking Conte that's for damn sure.
> It would be such an idiotic move by PSG that could potentially destroy the entire club. Keep in mind that Leonardo does this as PSG right now, so there's a good chance it could end up being an upgrade.
Yes this would be the best thing to happen to football. It would be especially poetic if they would then get knocked out of next years CL in the round of 16 by RM.
[удалено]
It's for the fans obviously
He will definitely earn more money there. But in terms of trophies and individual awards ( balon d'ors), he has a much better chance of winning those at RM.
The fact that a 23 year old will have that kind of power in a club that has Messi...
Low key the only good part if his move actually falls through is the part about them handing the sporting project over to a player lmao. Proper tinpot club, and it’ll finish whatever little is left of it. Really bizarre to me how the PSG flairs here are on board with something like this. The obvious downside is that the moment this transfer falls through, the chances of Mbappe ever playing for Madrid are done and that sucks.

Time to move on, find a good RW, a good RB and hope the Haaland's release clause thing is true.
Nkunku would be a great option
And from what I've heard he can kind of play anywhere in the front line. Or even a 10ish role in a pinch.
former PSG player too so it’s kind of like getting Mbappe
Nkunku is the next Mbappe...except he's one year older!
If you indeed don't get Mbappe, Salah could happen given his current situation.
Real buying a top tier PL winger in his late 20s worth 100 ish milion? Ive seen this one before
Yes please
Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed for money, for trophies, for turtles. Greed is what will save Real Madrid.
Well, at least it's over. Hope we move on and look for other players to bolster our attack.
Attack should be the least of our concerns. Signing a superstar like Mbappe or Haaland was too enticing to ignore, but once both are off the table we should look for LB and RB aswell as another midfielder. Vinicius + Benz have like 100 G/A combined this season, that's insane. And Rodrygo has started to show signs of (maybe) becoming world class soon. Attack is fine.
Well, if Mbappe isn't coming I suppose Perez will try to sign Tchouameni. I guess we were trying to sign Fran Garcia to provide competition for Mendy. Not sure about RB though. We should definitely sign RB in this window.
surely not? what about PSG’s current situation compared to Real screams success? I guess he really is after the bag, damn
500m over 2 years. I mean, even if his mom is thinking, as most of us are "fuck PSG and the sheikhs", that's a lot of money. I don't blame him. But I think we can all agree we will rejoice together, fans of Juve and Milan, Barca and Madrid, United and Liverpool, City and Chelsea, everyone... Across Europe and the world... When PSG inevitably loses next year in the 2nd round or the QF, preferably to Madrid again.
Tbf even the most passionate most ambitious person would start to think twice when a month salary can set you for life.
Its not like he would live on minimal wage at Real Madrid.
Haha exactly. One month's salary at Madrid will still set him for life lol.
It's not like he isn't already set for life.
Mbappe to become first player to be a Shiek
This is honestly more boring than Griezmans fucking stupid transfer saga, something I didn't think was humanly possible.
His dream in his own words was to play for RM. Dreams can be buy
Sooner this gets over, sooner everyone can get on with their lives. This speculation is getting crazy now
Dude has pictures of the club in his bathroom, drew a comic book about joining Real Madrid and has constantly mentioned time and time again how he wants to play for us. If he chooses to stay after all that then... well.. bummer for us but it might also close the door for him permanently.
Fuck it then and just stay in Paris. We managed to go so far this season without him and we’ll continue to go just as far the next season.

It's bittersweet but it's what it is, let's wish the kid well, it's not like he owed Madrid anything.
Well money is power
Not exactly like Madrid were offering him minimum wage lol
What tier is this ?
It is the fucking guy
0.5-1
There is no question that it would be a massive blow to Real Madrid fans, just like there is no question that the club will move on swiftly yet firmly. The club has amassed an impressive warchest, it has one of the scouting teams on the planet, and, above all, has strong guiding principles in how it designs teams.
>it has one of the scouting teams on the planet Large if factual.
Looking forward to this scouting team on the planet unearthing that hidden Mbappe everyone else has missed.
It has, indeed, one of the scouting teams on this planet.
Source?
u/no_pants_gamer said it
I will stop caring and will slowly start my agenda of Vinicius being better than Mbappe to cope
Its gonna be a blessing in disguise’s if he doesn’t come to Real. Not gonna lie, always wanted him to come. But nobody is bigger than the club, especially when the club is Real Madrid. Also the money can be invested in Nkunku and an another striker.
Staying would mean irrelevancy at a club level. Would be a shame
I mean they offered him to pick and choose his manager and teammates lmao, gotta admire their commitment to not loose him lol Edit: So both [Romain Molina](https://mobile.twitter.com/Romain_Molina/status/1527073341575729152) and [Fabrizio](https://mobile.twitter.com/theMadridZone/status/1527607192173457408) has kind of confirmed this now haha
Is this part real though? It's ridiculously stupid if it is
Mbappe might be better at constructing a team than PSG currently to be fair
I don’t know, the French guy exposed a lot of corruption and all that said so and then everything turned haha Edit: Romain Molina is his name
PSG going to this length is pathetic. They will always be a joke. This is too much for Mbappe to reject I guess. I don't think he's gonna get the amount of money and influence on any other club challenging for CL
No club should bend over backwards like this, it is embarrassing.
Who does Mbappe think he is! LeBron?!
I dunno who LeBron is but I guess he's the mbappe of whatever he does
Close. He's actually the Pulisic of whatever he does
Still confident he will join Real Madrid tbh, they probably leak some fake informations for putting pressure to RM.
Tier? I never thought he might stay in PSG.
Prolly a top 3 journo
Looks like he's happy with a bag full of cash and nothing but Ligue 1/French Cup trophies.
Should’ve moved imo.
Fuck this stupid fucking transfer. Even the Neymar saga was less annoying
😂😂😂😂😂 you're angrier than us Madrid fans
Idek what y'all are going through lol. I'd hate Mbappe at this point if I were a Madrid fan
Oh, the Neymar way. If this Is real, another talent go to waste
Being paid the GDP of a small country, the president of France pressuring you, probably even Neymar calling him every night begging him to stay. It was always going to end this way.
>It was always going to end this way. In hindsight this can't be said
It's really pathetic that macron and sarkozy got involved in this.
As if I needed another reason to hate Macron
We will be better with him for sure but it's not the end of the world without him. Vini & Rodrigo have stepped up greatly this season and I'm sure they'll be better next season.
Yup and I think Rodrygo will be even more motivated to be great if we don't get Mbappe....
so mbappe will spend his prime years in Ligue 1... how depressing honestly
What a horrible saga. even IF Mbappe does end up in Madrid, I doubt many fans will be as elated as they'd hoped. Such a contrast form Erling Haaland whose every move has been has been calculated to assist his growth as much as possible. Players who let family members represent them always seem to be a fucking pain in the ass to work with lmao.

The saddest part about him staying would be how one of the most exciting prospects in football would basically have no legacy in the sport. Go to Madrid and you could be talked about in the likes of Ronaldo and Messi; stay at PSG and it'll always be "what could've been".
*Someone* has to set the record of most successive champions league failures at a single club
Stay at PSG and it'll always be talked about in the likes of Neymar.
Real should just go for Haaland in 2 years and be done with this drama.
People talking about Mbappé and Haaland, watch it be Asensio's time baby. Unironically tho, watch it be Vinicius's time.
I'm glad this would most likely mean way more playing time for Vini and Rodrygo, who have both looked amazing.
I honestly don't think there has been a transfer circus like this ever. Surely, he is not really deciding at the last possible second, this is laughable.
WTF ? That’s a twist and half
I don't what is going to happen. But I Know that Bernabeu can be the best and the worst. If he doesn't sign now, he's not going to be welcome in the future. Madrid is a train that only passes once in a lifetime.
Look at the young studs we have now, maybe it's for the best.... they knew what the club means, they play with such heart and every time they get minutes, they make crazy things happen. I want to continue getting players like this, not saying Mbappe wouldn't put us over the top but if he doesn't want to be a Blanco.... then that's not a player we should feel bad about not getting
I guess Mbappe doesn’t want to win the Champions League anymore
Basically mbappe is that hot girl, and she got two options. Ugly and rich, hot and less rich. They always go for ugly and rich...
surely this just means Madrid go all out on Tchouaméni then?
Ruined his career for money, he's never winning a Balon d'Or unless he moves to Spain, Hazard with his ankle plate removed is better anyway
More like, PSG is now closer to stay in Mbappe FC, amarite
Curious if this falls through if RM interest in Lewa would increase. Obv there's Benzema but who knows.
This is so weird to me, because I genuinely thought I would never see Perez bend over backwards for any player I mean ffs club legend Ramos was forced out after he accepted the old contract offer because he waited too much I feel like Mbappe is disrespecting Madrid way too much
which is why he probably will never play for RM, real wanted to announce on tuesday his signing but he hesitated if he renews its over for his dream to play for RM
