Mbappé will not move from Paris before August, it seems a given by now, and according to some rumours PSG may not have already given up on the renewal issue.
Alessandro Grandesso, journalist for the Gazzetta dello Sport, spoke to the microphones of calciomercato.it, broadcast on the Twitch TVPLAY channel, to talk about the future of Kylian Mpabbé, the possible renewal negotiations with PSG, Real’s courtship and, finally, the Parisians’ interest in Victor Osimhen.
‘All media issues in football are quickly overcome. The moment Mbappé goes to Real Madrid, who are now orphaned of Benzema, one goal would be enough to forget all the rejections so far. It may be that PSG can lower their demands for Mbappé, but as of today, these are the conditions. The club is waiting for any offers, and will only decide to give him away on his own terms, eventually. The impression is that PSG will still try to submit renewal offers to Mbappé’.
‘Again, in the case of non-renewal, we can talk at the end of the market with Real,’ Grandesso explained. “At the moment, however, there are no official decisions made, they are only suppositions. It is not certain that we are going towards a transfer, the negotiation for Mbappé’s renewal exists. I wouldn’t take anything for granted. “
“Osimhen’s value is a function of the offers that will arrive and the possibilities of PSG in the case of the sale of Mbappé. If they sell him for 100 million, it is difficult for them to take him for 200 million,’ the journalist continued. ‘But then maybe everything changes. For now it’s fantasy market. He was of interest before Luis Enrique, let’s see if he is compatible with his football Osimhen. “
Mbappé and the fluctuating relationship with PSG: ‘There could also be a renewal’
Kylian Mbappé
“Last October, Mbappé’s entourage was talking about a farewell in January, due to the gangs of followers on Twitter threatening him in 2019 not to let him go to Real Madrid. The relationship between PSG and the player has always been very volatile and full of tension. Now the situation has exploded, but Mbappé has only said he does not want to benefit from the automatic renewal option in his contract. “
“Mbappé earns what Real Madrid had guaranteed him in 2021,” the interviewee explained. “Florentino Perez had budgeted 180 million euros for Mbappé and PSG has aligned with this valuation. This is the current situation.”
“On Donnarumma,” the journalist concluded, “the situation is simple. The French media started a campaign against him after the Champions League elimination, there was dualism with Navas and L’Equipe was aligned on Navas. What happened yesterday should be read in this function. Donnarumma’s footwork is more accurate than any other European goalkeeper, it’s a statistical fact. The debate is open and misguided in France. The goalkeeper is in the middle of a media trial against him. “
