Last summer, Kylian Mbappe humbled PSG, making Real Madrid wait… Mbappe is showing his true power.
Unlike most other Paris Saint – Germain players, Kylian Mbappe was very happy in the Ligue 1 round 1 match against Lorient last Saturday. While those around him at Parc des Princes are feeling very disappointed when they see the champion trying to break down the defense of the team ranked 10th last season. Mbappe was seen many times laughing and joking with Ousmane Dembele, who recently joined PSG. And why not? The match did nothing but prove that he is extremely important for PSG.
The day before, coach Luis Enrique announced that he still hoped there would be an amicable solution to the confrontation between Kylian Mbappe and President Nasser Al-Khelaifi, but this new coach emphasized: “The philosophy of the club is This club is very clear: the club stands above everything and I support that 100%.”
It cannot be denied that coach Luis Enrique’s thoughtful and sincere words are respectful but do not apply in Mbappe’s case. The events of the past few days have clearly proven that Kylian Mbappe is bigger than Paris Saint – Germain. And the fact is that he is probably the most powerful player in the world.
Kylian Mbappe knows clearly about his own value
PSG made an announcement before the first round match of the 2023 – 2024 season that the France captain was welcomed back.To the average person, that might seem like an incredible change. We remember that PSG seemed to have stood up to Mbappe. When a letter confirming his intention to leave the club in 2024 was suddenly leaked to the media, President Al-Khelaifi spoke up to confirm that Mbappe would have to find a new club before leaving. 2023 transfer closed. It’s easy to understand that PSG has no intention of losing the most valuable player in the world next summer.
Pillars and ambitions of PSG
President Al-Khelaifi is too enamored with Mbappe and clearly does not believe that a club like PSG can maintain stability without a player like Mbappe and certainly selling Mbappe is not at this time. With Lionel Messi and Neymar leaving PSG this summer, Mbappe is their last and most important symbol of the club brand.
Making Real Madrid wait
Mbappe deceived and led president Florentino Perez into a mess last summer but the Spanish president still clearly wanted to recruit him. He was even willing to wait until next year to do it.However, it is Mbappe who has the right to decide if and when he moves to Madrid. He can sign an extension at PSG, but if he does, it will be on his own terms. Don’t even be surprised if he ‘persuades’ PSG to include a buyback clause in 2024 in the contract for a fee he knows Madrid will be willing to pay.
